Abstract excerpt
The termination of floral meristem (FM) activity is essential for the normal development of reproductive floral organs. During this process, KNUCKLES (KNU), a C2H2-type zinc finger protein, crucially regulates FM termination by directly repressing the expression of both the stem cell identity gene WUSCHEL (WUS) and the stem cell marker gene CLAVATA3 (CLV3) to abolish the WUS-CLV3 feedback loop required for FM...
