Map-based cloning and characterization of transgenic lines of OsSTS. A Map-based cloning of OsSTS. OsSTS was pinpointed in a 68-kb genomic region between molecular markers L6 and L7 on chromosome 2, which contained ten candidate genes. B Structure of the OsSTS gene. Orange boxes represent exon. The red arrow indicates four base-deletion at the exon of LOC_Os02g54600 that result in a premature translation in sts. C Phenotypes of wild-type, sts, complementation (COM), and RNAi at the adult stage, bar = 10 cm. Comparative observation on panicles and grain size in transgenics, bar = 1 cm. D–G Statistical data of the panicle length, 1000-grain weight, grain length, and grain width in transgenics. Data are shown as mean ± SD (n = 15), **P < 0.01, Student’s t-test
