Abstract

The primary aim of this project is to unravel interactions between ethylene and GA signalling, at a molecular level, using Arabidopsis thaliana and Oryza sativa. Interactions in both the biosynthetic and signal transduction pathways will be considered. The second aim is to develop transgenic rice, which shows reduced stem elongation and thus produce plants with improved lodging tolerance that may be tested in future field trials.
