Mutant Detail



Mutant Detail:
Mutant SymbolCHR RNAi 
Allele SymbolCHR RNAi 
Gene and Mutation LocationCHR (RNAi silencing) 
Symbiotic Phenotype BriefNod+- 
Phenotype DetailSilencing of CHR led to severely reduced nodulation compared with vector control roots. The use of S. meliloti cells induced for Nod factor biosynthesis did not restore nodulation in CHSi, FNSi and CHRi roots. However, supplementation of roots with Dhf restored nodulation in FNSi and CHRi roots. 
Single gene targeted?yes 
Extra InformationCHR RNAi roots had about 40-fold less CHR transcripts than vector control roots, as assayed by qRT-PCR. 
Mutagenesis MethodRNAi 
Mutant ClassNod+- 
Allelism 
The earliest development stage known to be affectedN/A 
Wildtype LineJemalong A17
