Organogenesis at the Shoot Apical Meristem [PDF]
Plants, 2018 Lateral organ initiation at the shoot apical meristem involves complex changes in growth rates and directions, ultimately leading to the formation of leaves, stems and flowers. Extensive molecular analysis identifies auxin and downstream transcriptional regulation as major elements in this process.

Control of Arabidopsis apical-basal embryo polarity by antagonistic transcription factors. [PDF]
, 2010 Plants, similarly to animals, form polarized axes during embryogenesis on which cell differentiation and organ patterning programs are orchestrated. During Arabidopsis embryogenesis, establishment of the shoot and root stem cell populations occurs at ...

The CLAVATA and SHOOT MERISTEMLESS loci competitively regulate meristem activity in Arabidopsis [PDF]
, 1996 The CLAVATA (CLV1 and CLV3) and SHOOT MERISTEMLESS (STM) genes specifically regulate shoot meristem development in Arabidopsis. CLV and STH appear to have opposite functions: c1v1 and Clv3 mutants accumulate excess undifferentiated cells in the shoot and

Microneedle‐Based Biofertilizer Delivery Improves Plant Growth Through Microbiome Engineering
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.This figure shows how microneedles are used to deliver biofertilizers to enhance plant growth through microbial migration, metabolic reprogramming, and changes in plant endogenous microbiome. Abstract This study presents a microneedle‐based system for the delivery of rhizospheric biofertilizers into plant tissues to enhance growth.

Characterisation of inflorescence development in Zea mays with four developmental mutants : a thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science in Biological Science at Massey University, Palmerston North, New Zealand [PDF]
, 2000 The genetic control of inflorescence development has been studied in great detail in the model dicotyledonous plants Arabidopsis thaliana and Antirrhinum majus. In contrast, little is known about the genetic regulation in monocotyledonous species.

Differential spatial distribution of miR165/6 determines variability in plant root anatomy [PDF]
, 2017 A clear example of interspecific variation is the number of root cortical layers in plants. The genetic mechanisms underlying this variability are poorly understood, partly due to the lack of a convenient model.

Advanced Science, EarlyView.Researchers have identified a citrus chimera with distinctive tissue origins and carotenoid profiles. It is discovered that fruit tissues develop from all three cell layers but in different proportions. A key transcription factor, MYB107, regulates β‐cryptoxanthin production by directly activating carotenoid biosynthesis genes, explaining why some ...

CLAVATA3 is a specific regulator of shoot and floral meristem development affecting the same processes as CLAVATA1 [PDF]
, 1995 We have previously described the phenotype of Arabidopsis thaliana plants with mutations at the CLAVATA1 (CLV1) locus (Clark, S. E., Running, M. P. and Meyerowitz, E. M. (1993) Development 119, 397-418).

Regulation and Identity of Florigen: Flowering Locus T Moves Center Stage [PDF]
, 2008 The transition from vegetative to reproductive growth is controlled by day length in many plant species. Day length is perceived in leaves and induces a systemic signal, called florigen, that moves through the phloem to the shoot apex.

SP3 and DEP1 Orchestrate Panicle Architecture by Jointly Regulating APO2 Expression in Rice
Advanced Science, EarlyView.The transcription factor SP3 enhances inflorescence meristem activity and interacts with the cysteine‐rich domain of DEP1. This interaction alters DEP1's subcellular localization between the plasma membrane and nucleus, and suppresses SP3‐mediated transcriptional activation of APO2.
