Abstract excerpt
The cytokinins regulate a broad range of plant developmental events. We recently reported that the homeodomain transcription factor STIMPY (STIP) positively mediates the cytokinin signals in maintaining proliferative and pluoripotent properties of the shoot apical meristem in Arabidopsis. In line with our proposed model, light-grown stip seedlings are less sensitive to the growth inhibition effect of the...
