The signaling peptide-encoding genes CLE16, CLE17 and CLE27 are dispensable for Arabidopsis shoot apical meristem activity.
The shoot apical meristem produces all of the leaves, stems and flowers of a flowering plant from a reservoir of stem cells at its growing tip. In Arabidopsis, the small polypeptide signaling molecule CLAVATA3 (CLV3), a member of the CLV3/EMBRYO SURROUNDING REGION-RELATED (CLE) gene family, is a key...
