Abstract excerpt
miRNAs are essential regulators of cell identity, yet their role in early embryo development in plants remains largely unexplored. To determine the earliest stage at which miRNAs act to promote pattern formation in embryogenesis, we examined a series of mutant alleles in the Arabidopsis thaliana miRNA biogenesis enzymes DICER-LIKE 1 (DCL1), SERRATE (SE), and HYPONASTIC LEAVES 1 (HYL1). Cellular and patterning...
