Cosuppression, Flower Color Patterns, and Metastable Gene Expression States
Abstract
In plants, transgenes often induce rapid turnover of homologous endogenous transcripts. This "cosuppression" of homologous genes is an extremely nonlinear response to small increases in gene expression or dosage, inversely amplifying them into dramatic phenotypic alterations. Pigment transgenes elicit metastable cosuppression patterns organized by flower morphology. Pattern organization and metastability reflect regulatory states (probably transgene transcription states) that respond to morphological features and are labile to physiology and development. Shifts between regulatory states can be highly ordered; for example, a shift may be imposed on a population of cells defining a meristem, which then stably maintains and transmits the new state throughout growth.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
