The balance between the MIR164A and CUC2 genes controls leaf margin serration in Arabidopsis.
CUP-SHAPED COTYLEDON1 (CUC1), CUC2, and CUC3 define the boundary domain around organs in the Arabidopsis thaliana meristem. CUC1 and CUC2 transcripts are targeted by a microRNA (miRNA), miR164, encoded by MIR164A, B, and C. We show that each MIR164 is transcribed to generate a large population of primary miRNAs of variable size with a locally conserved secondary structure around the pre-miRNA. ...
متن کاملCOTYLEDON 2 (CUC2) facilitates the initiation of serrations by enabling PIN1 to reorientate within the membranes of margin cells to change the auxin flux from a leaf tip oriented flux into a segmented flux towards convergence points where the serrations
INTRODUCTION Plant leaves have a major role in the photosynthetic supply of nutrients, gas exchange, the distribution of nutrients and water transport (Tsukaya, 2006). To optimise these functions in different habitats, plants need to adapt leaf positioning, size and shape (Hasson et al., 2010; Nicotra et al., 2011). An important trait of leaf shape variation is the outline of the leaf margin, w...
متن کاملthe relationship between learners critical thinking ability and their performance in the reading sections of the tofel and ielts test
the study reflected in this thesis aims at finding out relationships between critical thinking (ct), and the reading sections of tofel and ielts tests. the study tries to find any relationships between the ct ability of students and their performance on reading tests of tofel and academic ielts. however, no research has ever been conducted to investigate the relationship between ct and the read...
15 صفحه اولAuxin influx importers modulate serration along the leaf margin
Leaf shape in Arabidopsis is modulated by patterning events in the margin that utilize a PIN-based auxin exporter/CUC2 transcription factor system to define regions of promotion and retardation of growth, leading to morphogenesis. In addition to auxin exporters, leaves also express auxin importers, notably members of the AUX1/LAX family. In contrast to their established roles in embryogenesis, ...
متن کاملThe CUC1 and CUC2 genes promote carpel margin meristem formation during Arabidopsis gynoecium development
Carpel margin meristems (CMMs), a pair of meristematic tissues present along the margins of two fused carpel primordia of Arabidopsis thaliana, are essential for the formation of ovules and the septum, two major internal structures of the gynoecium. Although a number of regulatory factors involved in shoot meristem activity are known to be required for the formation of these gynoecial structure...
