　　Grain size is a major determinant of cereal grain yields; however, the relevant regulatory mechanisms controlling this trait have not been fully elucidated. The rice(Oryza sativa) mutant short grain6(sg6) was identified based on its reduced grain length and weight. Here, we functionally characterized the role of SG6 in determining grain size through the regulation of spikelet hull cell division. SG6 encodes a previously uncharacterized plant ATrich sequence and zinc-binding(PLATZ) protein that i...

INTRODUCTION
RESULTS
    sg6 produces shorter grains
    SG6 encodes a novel PLATZ protein,and its overexpression significantly enlarges seed size and weight
