Stomatal development: new signals and fate determinants.
Current opinion in plant biology - 1 Feb 2009
Nadeau Jeanette A
Abstract excerpt
Stomata and pavement cells are produced by a series of asymmetric divisions and progressive fate transitions within a stem cell lineage. In Arabidopsis, this process is regulated so that new lineages can be inserted between previously differentiated cells while maintaining stomatal spacing. The small peptide EPIDERMAL PATTERNING FACTOR 1 may be a positional signal secreted by stomatal precursors to modulate...
