Abstract excerpt
Lateral root formation is an important developmental component of root systems in vascular plants. Several regulatory genes for lateral root formation have been identified from recent studies mainly using Arabidopsis thaliana. In this study, we isolated two dominant mutant alleles, crane-1 and crane-2, which are defective in lateral root formation in Arabidopsis. The crane mutants have dramatically reduced...
