Abstract excerpt
Highly efficient tissue repair is pivotal for surviving damage-associated stress. Plants generate callus upon injury to heal wound sites, yet regulatory mechanisms of tissue repair remain elusive. Here, we identified WUSCHEL-RELATED HOMEOBOX 13 (WOX13) as a key regulator of callus formation and organ adhesion in Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana). WOX13 belongs to an ancient subclade of the WOX family, and a...
