text OsMADS3 is involved in flower meristem determinacy in late flower development and in flower meristem activity in early flower development. Genetic interaction of OsMADS3, DROOPING LEAF, and OsMADS13 plays role in specifying rice floral organ identities and meristem determinacy. OsMADS3 plays a synergistic role with OsMADS13 in both ovule development and floral meristem termination. Knockout plants of OSMADS3 shows homeotic transformation of stamens into lodicules and ectopic development of lodicules in the second whorl near the palea where lodicules do not form in the wild type but carpels develop almost normally.
