The Maize rough sheath2 Gene and Leaf Development Programs in Monocot and Dicot Plants

Tsiantis, Miltos, Schneeberger, Richard, Golz, John F., Freeling, Michael, Langdale, Jane A.·1999·Science

Abstract

Leaves of higher plants develop in a sequential manner from the shoot apical meristem. Previously it was determined that perturbed leaf development in maize rough sheath2 ( rs2 ) mutant plants results from ectopic expression of knotted1 -like ( knox ) homeobox genes. Here, the rs2 gene sequence was found to be similar to the Antirrhinum PHANTASTICA ( PHAN ) gene sequence, which encodes a Myb-like transcription factor. RS2 and PHAN are both required to prevent the accumulation of knox gene products in maize and Antirrhinum leaves, respectively. However, rs2 and phan mutant phenotypes differ, highlighting fundamental differences in monocot and dicot leaf development programs.

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.
