The rice mutant AZ1302 is defective in both aerenchyma formation and iron plaque formation, and its causal mutation maps to OsPSY2.
The findings dissociate the roles of aerenchyma formation and iron plaque formation and support a model in which OsPSY2 integrates hormonal signaling to drive root plasticity.
In psy2 mutants, exogenous abscisic acid restores iron plaque deposition.
In psy2 mutants, exogenous strigolactones rescue aerenchyma formation.
