Abstract

The expression patterns of OsPIL11,  one of  six putative phytochromeinteracting factors(PIFs), were analyzed, revealing that expression of OsPIL11was organspecific and  regulated by leaf development, ABA, JA and SA.  To further explore the role of OsPIL11in plant light signal transduction, plant expression vector of OsPIL11was constructed and introduced into tobacco(Nicotiana tabacum).  In continuous red light(R), OsPIL11overexpressed transgenic lines exhibited shorter hypocotyls and larger cotyledons and leaves compared to wildtype seedlings. While  in continuous farred light(FR),  either transgenic or wildtype seedlings showed similar phenotypes. These results indicated  that OsPIL11was involved in Rinduced deetiolation, but not in FRinduced deetiolation in transgenic tobacco.
