Abstract

Argonaute (AGO) protein is the core effectors in RNAinduced silencing complexes (RISCs), playing an important role in plant development. The 2nd and the 11th-12th exon fragments of OsAGO1awere amplified independently to make two RNAi constructs: OsAGO1aI1E and OsAGO1aI2E. To clarify the function of OsAGO1a in rice development,  the expression of OsAGO1a has been suppressed by introducing RNAi constructs to Nipponbare through Agrobacteriummediated transformation. The result showed that the reduced expression of OsAGO1a lead to adaxial leaf rolling without affecting main agronomic traits.
