The rice EMS-derived mutant leaf adaxialized 1 (lad1) was isolated based on its upward rolling leaf phenotype. Besides the adaxially rolled leaf, many other agronomic traits were also compromised in lad1. The rolling trait was characterized by a noticeable alteration of bulliform cells in the adaxial side of the leaves. Map-based cloning showed a single nucleotide substitution in the promoter region of the KAN1 gene in lad1 mutant. Further, over-expressing and CRISPR/cas9-edited knockdown transgenic plants confirmed that KAN1 was responsible for the mutant phenotype of lad1. Yeast two-hybrid and bimolecular fluorescence complementation assay demonstrated that KAN1 can interact with the auxin response factors ARF3, ARF7 and ARF15. Physiologically, the contents of auxin (IAA), abscisic acid (ABA), jasmonic acid (JA) and gibberellin (GA) were all significantly increased in the lad1 mutant. Moreover, the GA3 content dramatically decrease in wild-type, but increased in lad1 under IAA induction. Additionally, the expression levels of several IAA and GA biosynthesis and responsive-related genes and genes involved in leaf polarity determination were altered in lad1. Therefore, we hypothesized that KAN1/ARFs protein complexes act as auxin-dependent regulatory units that play a conserved role in leaf development.
