This project investigates the genetic factors influencing leaf shape in the model plant Arabidopsis thaliana. By creating transgenic plants and utilizing advanced sequencing techniques, it aims to identify key genes and evolutionary pathways that regulate leaf development.
Like all seed plants, the body of the model plant Arabidopsis thaliana consists of two distinct systems, the root and the shoot.
The shoot system contains the shoot apical meristem (SAM) harboring a population of plant stem cells.
During the vegetative growth phase the population of stem cells in the SAM divides asymmetrically and produces the cells that will eventually form new organs.
Leaves are initiated at the periphery of the SAM in a circular fashion.
Proper establishment of the ad/abaxial…
