D14 — Oryza sativa Japonica

Summary

OsD14 (D14, OsDLK2, OsKAI2) on rice chromosome 11 encodes an alpha/beta hydrolase-fold protein with esterase activity and protein-tag functions. It is associated with strigolactone and karrikin responses, cellular response to strigolactone, strigolactone anabolism, shoot morphogenesis, organogenesis, secondary shoot formation, cuticle development, de-etiolation, positive regulation of leaf senescence, auxin polar transport, meristem organisation, seed germination downregulation, arbuscular mycorrhizae formation, systemic acquired resistance, nitrate response, and thirst response upregulation. The protein localises to the ubiquitin ligase complex, SCF complex, cytosol, cytoplasm, and nucleus. Observed phenotypes include tiller, development, and phloem traits. Additional associations include bacterial blight disease resistance, grain yield, seed yield, plant height, root length, flowering time, leaf senescence, anthocyanin content, stomatal resistance, heat tolerance, drought stress sensitivity, nitrogen deficiency response, and dwarf architecture.
