Description
Aerial parts of the rice-Arabidopsis FOX (Full-length cDNA overexpressor) lines K16331 and K19624 harboring the rice FL cDNA of LBD37 (Os-LBD37) were analyzed. LBD37 belongs to the plant- specific LOB- (Lateral Organ Boundary) domain family proteins first characterized in Arabidopsis. Results point towards an involvement of the rice LBD37 ortholog of Arabidopsis in nitrogen metabolism- related processes.
