Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND AND AIMS: ERECTA has been identified as a pleiotropic regulator of developmental and physiological processes in Arabidopsis thaliana. Previous work demonstrated a role for ERECTA in the control of compensation between epidermal cell expansion and division in leaves. METHODS: In this work, spatial and temporal analyses of epidermal cell division and expansion were performed on successive developing...
