Abstract excerpt
Plant cells are connected by plasmodesmata (PD), membrane-lined channels that facilitate cell-to-cell transport. Forward genetic screens to uncover regulators of PD transport identified mutants with increased (ise1 to ise4) or decreased (dse1) PD trafficking during embryogenesis. Despite their opposite effects on PD transport, we found that the transcriptional profiles of dse1, ise3, and ise4 were notably similar...
