RICE MICROTUBULE-ASSOCIATED PROTEIN OSMAP65-3.1, BUT NOT OSMAP65-3.2, PLAYS A CRITICAL ROLE IN PHRAGMOPLAST MICROTUBULE ORGANIZATION IN CYTOKINESIS

Rice microtubule-associated protein OsMAP65-3.1, but not OsMAP65-3.2, plays a critical role in phragmoplast microtubule organization in cytokinesis

In plants, MAP65 preferentially cross-links the anti-parallel microtubules (MTs) and plays an important role for cytokinesis.However, the functions of MAP65 isoforms in rice (Oryza sativa.L) are largely unknown.Here, we identified two MAP65-3 homologs in rice, OsMAP65-3.1 and OsMAP65-3.2.We found that both OsMAP65-3.1 and OsMAP65-3.2 were similar i
