Functionally redundant LNG3 and LNG4 genes regulate turgor-driven polar cell elongation through activation of XTH17 and XTH24
2018
Key message
In this work, we genetically characterized the function of Arabidopsis thaliana, LONGIFOLIA (LNG1), LNG2, LNG3, LNG4, their contribution to regulate vegetative architecture in plant. We used molecular and biophysical approaches to elucidate a gene function that regulates vegetative architecture, as revealed by the leaf phenotype and later effects on flowering patterns in Arabidopsis loss-of-function mutants. As a result, LNG genes play an important role in polar cell elongation by turgor pressure controlling the activation of XTH17 and XTH24.
