Abstract excerpt
Cereal endosperm is a model system for cell fate determination in plants. In wild-type plants the outermost endosperm cells adopt aleurone cell fate, while all underlying cells display starchy endosperm cell fate. Mutant analysis showed that cell fate is determined by position rather than lineage. To further characterise the precise cell fate of the outermost cells, we performed a differential screen and isolated...
