Rice functional genomics using T-DNA mutants

Rice (Oryza sativa) is a major cereal crop that has been developed as a monocot model species. In past decades rice researchers have established valuable resources for functional genomics in rice, such as complete genome sequencing, high-density genetic maps, a full length cDNA database, genome-wide transcriptome data, and a large number of mutants. Of these, rice mutant lines are very important to definitively determine functions of genes...
