PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To obtain the subject new gene comprising DNA encoding a protein which participates in formation of a form of a plant having a specific amino acid sequence and useful for preparation of dwarf plants by antisense chain of the DNA and expression of foreign gene of rice. SOLUTION: This new OSDIM gene of rice comprises an amino acid sequence in which one or a plurality of amino acids are deleted or substituted or added in a protein comprising an amino acid sequence represented by the formula or an amino acid sequence represented by the formula and encodes a protein which participates in formation of a form of a plant and is useful as a promoter, etc., for constitutively expressing foreign gene in rice. The gene is obtained by screening cDNA library prepared from a leaf of rice by using cDNA exhibiting high homology with a DIM gene obtained from salt stress cDNA of rice as a probe. |
