Abstract

Abstract: Dwarfism is one of the most important agronomic traits of rice. The genes underlying participate a series of important physiological and biochemical process. Cloning and functional analysis of the dwarfism related genes reveal the mechanisms for high yielding rice production. In the review, the concept of dwarfism and class of dwarf gene of rice were introduced, and the structure, function and relation with classical genetics and breeding values of the cloned genes were summarized.
