CRISPR/Cas9-Induced Mutagenesis of <i>Semi-Rolled Leaf1,2</i> Confers Curled Leaf Phenotype and Drought Tolerance by Influencing Protein Expression Patterns and ROS Scavenging in Rice (<i>Oryza sativa</i> L.)

Rice leaf morphology is an essential agronomic trait to develop drought-tolerant genotypes for adequate and stable crop production in drought-prone areas. Here, rolled leaf mutant plants were acquired by CRISPR/Cas9-based mutagenesis of <i>Semi-rolled leaf1,2</i> (<i>SRL1</i>...
