Arabidopsis actin gene ACT7 plays an essential role in germination and root growth.

The Plant journal : for cell and molecular biology - 1 Jan 2003

Abstract excerpt

Arabidopsis contains eight actin genes. Of these ACT7 is the most strongly expressed in young plant tissues and shows the greatest response to physiological cues. Adult plants homozygous for the act7 mutant alleles show no obvious above-ground phenotypes, which suggests a high degree of functional redundancy among plant actins. However, act7-1 mutant plants are at a strong selective disadvantage when grown in...
