Plant Rho small GTPases (Rop/Rac) are versatile molecular switches regulating many plant developmental processes. Particularly, their important functions in regulating pollen development have been demonstrated in Arabidopsis. A group of conserved Rop/Rac activators RopGEFs were recently reported to regulate rice (Oryza sativa) pollen tube germination, indicating that rice and Arabidopsis may have a conserved Rop/Rac mediated signaling pathway in regulating pollen tube growth. However, the Rop/Rac activated by the rice pollen specific RopGEFs remains to be identified. Here we demonstrated a Rop/Rac gene, OsRacB, co-expressed with the mature pollen expressed OsRopGEF2/3/6/8. The knockout mutants were normal in anther and pollen development but defective in the pollen grain germination, suggesting a specific and non-redundant role of OsRacB in the mature pollen. We further demonstrated that OsRacB is directly activated by the pollen specific expressing OsRopGEFs in vitro. Together with the previous study, we establish a RopGEF-Rop/Rac regulon which plays essential roles in rice pollen grain germination. Our data encourage further identification of the upstream and downstream players of RopGEF-Rop/Rac signaling in pollen germination and have agricultural implications for breeding robust seed yielding cultivars.
