Developing Arabidopsis thaliana seed coat specific promoter as a tool for basic and applied research

During differentiation of Arabidopsis thaliana seed coat epidermal cells, dramatic changes occur highlighted by the synthesis and secretion of large amounts of pectinaceous mucilage. This cell type, therefore, provides an excellent molecular-genetic model to study the biosynthesis, secretion and mod...
