Abstract excerpt
Arabidopsis develops interfascicular fibers in stems for needed support of shoots. To study the molecular mechanisms controlling fiber differentiation, we isolated an interfascicular fiber mutant (ifl1) by screening ethyl methanesulfonate-mutagenized Arabidopsis populations. This mutant lacks normal interfascicular fibers in stems. Interestingly, some interfascicular cells were sclerified in the upper parts but...
