The WUSCHEL gene is required for shoot and floral meristem integrity in Arabidopsis.

Development (Cambridge, England) - 1 Jan 1996

Laux T, Mayer K F, Berger J, Jürgens G

Abstract excerpt

Self perpetuation of the shoot meristem is essential for the repetitive initiation of shoot structures during plant development. In Arabidopsis shoot meristem maintenance is disrupted by recessive mutations in the WUSCHEL (WUS) gene. The defect is evident at all developmental stages and is restricted to shoot and floral meristems, whereas the root meristem is not affected. wus mutants fail to properly organize a...
