The physiological importance of GSK3-like kinases in plants emerged when the functional
role of plant GSK3-like kinases represented by BIN2 was first elucidated in the …

Glycogen synthase kinase 3 (GSK3) proteins, also known as SHAGGY-like kinases, have
many important cell signalling roles in animals, fungi and amoebae. In particular, GSK3s …

Grain size and shape are important determinants of grain weight and yield in rice. Here, we
report a new major quantitative trait locus (QTL), qTGW3, that controls grain size and weight …

In Arabidopsis thaliana, the GSK3/SHAGGY-like kinase BRASSINOSTEROID-
INSENSITIVE2 (BIN2) plays a critical role in the brassinosteroid (BR) signaling pathway by …

T-DNA-tagged rice plants were screened under cold-or salt-stress conditions to determine
the genes involved in the molecular mechanism for their abiotic-stress response. Line 0-165 …

Abstract GLYCOGEN SYNTHASE KINASE3 (GSK3) is a highly conserved serine/threonine
kinase involved in a variety of developmental signaling processes. The Arabidopsis …

Brassinosteroids (BRs) regulate various agronomic traits such as plant height, leaf angle,
and grain size in rice (Oryza sativa L.); thus, BR signaling components are promising targets …

Grain size is a key component of grain yield and quality in crops. Several core players of
auxin signaling have been revealed to modulate grain size; however, to date, few …

Plant height and grain size are important agronomic traits affecting rice yield. Various plant
hormones participate in the regulation of plant height and grain size in rice. However, how …

Light functions as the primary environmental stimulus and brassinosteroids (BRs) as
important endogenous growth regulators throughout the plant lifecycle …
