Differential mutation accumulation in plant meristematic layers

2023-09-26

Abstract excerpt

The upper plant body is formed by the continued growth of shoot apical meristems. In angiosperms, meristems are organized in three cell layers that tend to remain clonally isolated. Somatic variants emerge when mutant cells overtake part or all of a meristem. During sexual reproduction, only one layer, the L2, contributes to the next generation by forming gametes. The L2 is known to frequently invade and replace t...
