Abstract | In plants, gibberellin (GA) levels are tightly regulated to optimise growth and development. GA 3-oxidases (GA3OX) catalyse a key GA biosynthesis step, converting precursor GAs into bioactive forms. We characterised seven GA3OX homologues in bread wheat (Triticum aestivum L.): a homoeologous triad of GA3OX2 genes expressed in vegetative and reproductive tissues and four others (a homoeologous triad of GA3OX3 genes plus GA1OX1-B1) expressed predominantly in grains. |
