Abstract: A function-unknown gene was isolated from a cDNA library of young spike of rice and designated as OsRhoGAP1. Based on the bioinformatics and modern molecular biology,we systematically surveyed its expression patterns at different development stages and under different hormones treatments. Bioinformatics analysis showed that OsRhoGAP1 had typical structural feature of plant RhoGAP protein,including CRIB motif and RhoGAP domain. qRT-PCR analysis revealed that OsRhoGAP1 gene presented specifically spatio-temporal characteristics,i.e.,relative high expression levels in root and leave at the seedling stage,in young panicle and leave at the panicle stage,and in root at the mature stage. Furthermore,the transcription of OsRhoGAP1 was strongly induced by ABA,SA,GA,and MeJA,but suppressed by IAA and 6-BA. It was speculated that the expression of OsRhoGAP1 was regulated by hormones.
