Abstract excerpt
The control of epidermal cell fate is a complex molecular process and requires the regulatory activity of different transcription factors. Here, we describe the isolation of a member of the Arabidopsis MYB transcription factor family, AtMYB23, that is involved in trichome development. Expression of the AtMYB23 gene under the control of the viral CaMV 35S promoter causes the development of ectopic trichomes. The...
