Lilliputian mutant of maize lacks cell elongation and shows defects in organization of actin cytoskeleton.

Developmental biology - 15 Aug 2001

Abstract excerpt

The maize mutant lilliputian is characterized by miniature seedling stature, reduced cell elongation, and aberrant root anatomy. Here, we document that root cells of this mutant show several defects in the organization of actin filaments (AFs). Specifically, cells within the meristem lack dense perinuclear AF baskets and fail to redistribute AFs during mitosis. In contrast, mitotic cells of wild-type roots...
