This research explores how the KLU gene in Arabidopsis controls organ size by regulating cell proliferation. The project aims to understand KLU's signaling dynamics and its role in coordinating growth across plant organs.
How growth in plants is controlled to generate organs with a species-specific size and shape is a fundamental question of developmental biology.
The Arabidopsis KLU gene, encoding a putative cytochrome P450, controls the timing of proliferation arrest in growing primordia and thus regulates cell numbers and organ size. KLU acts in a non-cell autonomous manner by producing a mobile growth factor.
Its restricted expression pattern at the periphery of organ primordia suggests a model whereby this d…
