Abstract excerpt
The cellulose synthase-like proteins are a large family of proteins in plants thought to be processive polysaccharide beta-glycosyltransferases. We have characterized an Arabidopsis mutant with a transposon insertion in the gene encoding AtCSLA7 of the CSLA subfamily. Analysis of the transmission efficiency of the insertion indicated that AtCSLA7 is important for pollen tube growth. Moreover, the homozygous...
