Abstract
We have isolated three rice cDNA sequences coding for divergent isotyp es of cr-tubulin. TubA1 and TubA2 are members of the plant subfamily I of cr-tubulins whereas TubA3 belongs to subfamily II. The pattern of accumulation of TubA3 mRNA in rice flowers, roots and coleoptile segme nts treated with auxin differs significantly from what observed for Tu bA1 and TubA2 mRNAs.
