Root stem cell niche organizer specification by molecular convergence of PLETHORA and SCARECROW transcription factor modules.

Genes & development - 1 Aug 2018

Shimotohno Akie, Heidstra Renze, Blilou Ikram, Scheres Ben

Abstract excerpt

Continuous formation of somatic tissues in plants requires functional stem cell niches where undifferentiated cells are maintained. In Arabidopsis thaliana, PLETHORA (PLT) and SCARECROW (SCR) genes are outputs of apical-basal and radial patterning systems, and both are required for root stem cell specification and maintenance. The WUSCHEL-RELATED HOMEOBOX 5 (WOX5) gene is specifically expressed in and required...
