Abstract excerpt
The tu8 mutant of Arabidopsis thaliana (L.) Heynh. was previously described as deficient in pathogen-induced auxin and glucosinolate (GSL) accumulation, as well as in heat-induced accumulation of cytosolic Hsp90, the latter feature was accom"panied by reduced thermotolerance at higher temperatures. The mutated gene was shown to be a novel allele of TERMINAL FLOWER2, encoding the only Arabidopsis homolog for...
