Abstract excerpt
Vegetative axillary meristem (AXM) activity results in the production of branches. In barley (Hordeum vulgare L.), vegetative AXM develop in the crown and give rise to modified branches, referred to as tillers. Mutations in the barley low-tillering mutant uniculm2 block vegetative AXM development and prevent tiller development. The objectives of this work were to examine gene expression in wild-type and cul2...
