Based on fold enrichment analysis and GO expression of upregulated DEGs in late inflorescence, early inflorescence, and anthers, we predicted 15 genes; among them, only 2 genes, i.e., KAURENE SYNTHASE-LIKE 4 (OsKSL4) and CYTOCHROME P450 MONO-OXYGENASES CYP99A2, have been cloned so far and found to be involved in GA metabolism and diterpenoid phylotoxins [40,41]. The above prediction analysis reveals the novel genes that might be involved in the panicle development by regulating the expression of early or late inflorescence or anther development, directly or indirectly (Figure 5, Table 2).
