“…Importantly, most of the work we will describe would not have been possible without the resources described above. There are a number of additional developmental processes being studied in B. distachyon; important contributions include for example, cell wall biology (see Coomey et al, 2020) and references therein), vascular development (Sakai et al, 2021;Smertenko et al, 2019), pleiotropic genes like the NOOT-BOP-COCH-LIKE genes (Magne et al, 2020), seed germination (Wolny et al, 2018), species-specific aspects of abscission zone formation (Yu et al, 2020), and even thigmomorphogenesis-the developmental response to touch (Coomey et al, 2021). We apologize for not being able to cover all the developmental work done with B. distachyon due to space limitations.…”
