LAZY2 controls rice tiller angle through regulating starch biosynthesis in gravity‐sensing cells

What is it about?

Tiller angle is one of the most important agronomic traits for achieving ideal plant architecture and thus higher grain yields. In this study, we identified a novel rice tiller angle control gene LAZY2, which is indispensable for starch biosynthesis in rice gravity-sensing cells, providing new insights into the regulatory network of rice tiller angle.
