The researchers subjected the rice seeds to heavy ion irradiation and later screened for resistance to glufosinate. Two individual rice plants, glr1 and glr2, showed resistance. The glr1 mutant showed significant resistance to glufosinate. Through map-based cloning and functional analysis, the researchers revealed that the GLR1 gene encodes ARF18, which belongs to the ARF family of auxin response factors.
