Abstract excerpt
Previous studies have suggested that the plastid translation elongation factor, elongation factor thermo unstable (EF-Tu), encoded by RAB GTPASE HOMOLOG 8D (RAB8D) is essential for plant growth. Here, through analyzing the root phenotypes of two knock-down alleles of RAB8D (rab8d-1 and rab8d-2), we further revealed a vital role for RAB8D in primary root development through the maintenance of both the stem cell...
