Trafficking and localization of KNOTTED1 related mRNAs in shoot meristems
Communicative & Integrative Biology, 2022 Multicellular organisms use transcripts and proteins as signaling molecules for cell-to-cell communication. Maize KNOTTED1 (KN1) was the first homeodomain transcription factor identified in plants, and functions in maintaining shoot stem cells.

Commercial scale genetic transformation of mature seed embryo explants in maize
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2022 A novel, efficient maize genetic transformation system was developed using Agrobacterium-mediated transformation of embryo explants from mature seeds. Seeds from field grown plants were sterilized and crushed to isolate embryo explants consisting of the ...

Analysis of expansin-induced morphogenesis on the apical meristem of tomato [PDF]
, 1999 Our previous work has shown that localised activity of the cell-wall-loosening protein expansin is sufficient to induce primordia on the apical meristem of tomato, consistent with the hypothesis that tissue expansion plays a key role in leaf initiation ...

Vegetative Apical Meristems. [PDF]
The Plant Cell, 1992 A fascinating aspect of plant biology is that a small cell group is the origin of shoot systems as varied as redwood trees or Arabidopsis. The first recognition that shoot systems originate from small groups of cells was by Kaspar Wolff in 1759 (cited in Cutter, 1965). These small groups of cells are known as shoot apical meristems.

Transformation of Inhibitor of Meristem Activity (IMA) Gene into Jatropha curcas L.
Makara Journal of Science, 2015 Jatropha is one of the many biodiesel plants developed in tropical countries. Efforts to increase its productivity can be done using various methods of breeding. One of the breeding methods is the introduction of genes into the Jatropha plant. The aim of

Meristem Maintenance in Maize [PDF]
The Plant Cell, 2015 Stem cells in the shoot meristem are the ultimate source of aerial organs in plants. They shape the plant, determining the layout of branches, leaves, and flowers, and allow plants to produce new organs throughout their life cycle.

Morphogenesis at the shoot meristem
Comptes Rendus. Biologies, 2023 Shoot apical meristems are populations of stem cells which initiate the aerial parts of higher plants. Work during the last decades has revealed a complex network of molecular regulators, which control both meristem maintenance and the production of different types of organs.

Simulation of Organ Patterning on the Floral Meristem Using a Polar Auxin Transport Model
, 2012 An intriguing phenomenon in plant development is the timing and positioning of lateral organ initiation, which is a fundamental aspect of plant architecture.

Regulation of shoot apical meristem function by abscisic acid and hormone crosstalk
, 2023 reservedThe shoot apical meristem (SAM) is the source of stem cells that allows to generate all the aerial parts of the plant, such as leaves, stems, or flowers. For proper SAM activity during plant development, it is necessary to maintain an equilibrium
