Abstract excerpt
Loss-of-function mutations in the FUSCA3 (FUS3) gene of Arabidopsis result in alterations in cotyledon identity, inability to complete late seed maturation processes, and the premature activation of apical and root embryonic meristems, which indicates that this transcription factor is an essential regulator of embryogenesis. Although FUS3 shows a complex pattern of expression in the embryo, this gene is only...
