Abstract:Stem cell homeostasis by the WUS-CLV negative feedback loop is generally conserved across species; however, its links with other meristem regulators may have species-specific distinctions, rice being an example. We characterize rice OsbZIP47 for vegetative and inflorescence phenotypes in knockdown (OsbZIP47KD) transgenics and uncover its role in meristem maintenance and developmental progression. The shoot apical meristem (SAM) size in five day old OsbZIP47KD seedlings, was reduced as compared to the wild-type… Show more
