Rice Xa21 resistance gene, which encodes a protein with predicted leucine-rich repeat (LRR), transmembrane, juxtamembrane, and intracellular kinase domains, conferred immunity to diverse strains of Xa
Rice transgenic lines over-expressing RDR3 were showing vigrous growth phenotype. Height and tiller number of over-expression lines were increased comapred to wild-type controls. Homology dependent si
