Popis: International audience; Plant recovery from early season drought is related to the amount of biomass retained during stress and biomass production after the end of stress. Reduction in leaf expansion is one of the first responses to water deficit. It is assumed that the control of tissue development under water deficit contributes to traits such as early vigor, as well as maintenance of growth of reproductive organs. To dissect the underlying mechanisms controlling tissue expansion under water-limited conditions, we used a multilevel approach combining quantitative genetics and genomics. To identify orthologous genetic regions controlling tissue growth under water-limited conditions a series of QTL mapping and microarray gene expression studies were conducted in rice and maize. Results of differentially expressed genes from microarray experiments, QTLs and candidate genes related to growth in the different species are compared on consensus maps (within species) and then on synteny maps (between species), to identify common genetic regions between rice and maize.
