G-protein βγ subunits determine grain size through interaction with MADS-domain transcription factors in rice

Cereal crops' grain yield and quality are traits that are usually considered to be negatively correlated. Here, the authors show that interaction of G-protein βγ subunits with an alternatively spliced MADS1lgy3 protein can increase rice grain yield and quality simultaneously in field conditions...
