Knockout of OsWOX13 Moderately Delays Flowering in Rice under Natural Long-Day Conditions
Knockout of OsWOX13 Moderately Delays Flowering in Rice under Natural Long-Day Conditions

Plants are sensitive to photoperiods and are also equipped with systems to adjust their flowering time in response to various changes in the environment and developmental hormones. In the present study, previously generated rice OsWOX13 overexpression (OsWOX13-ov) and newly generated OsWOX13 knockout (oswox13-ko) lines constructed via Cas9-CRISPR technology flowered 10 days earlier and 4 to 6 days later than the WT, respectively.
