Summary
Lesion mimic mutants are valuable to unravel the mechanisms governing the programmed cell death (PCD) process. Uridine 5′‐diphosphoglucose‐glucose (UDPG) functions as a signaling molecule activating multiple pathways in animals, but little is known about its function in plants.
Two novel allelic mutants of spl29 with typical PCD characters and reduced pollen viability were obtained by ethane methyl sulfonate mutagenesis in rice cv Kitaake.
The enzymatic analyses showed that UDP‐N‐acetylglucosamine pyrophosphorylase 1 (UAP1) irr...
