A rice cDNA clone termed OsMADS1 has been isolated. The sequence of this cDNA is presented. Expression of OsMADS1 in transgenic tobacco plants dramatically alters development, resulting in short, bushy, early flowering plants with reduced apical dominance. It is proposed that the OsMADS1 gene is involved in flower induction and may therefore be used to produce plants with altered phenotypic characteristics.
