A gene expression map of Arabidopsis thaliana development

TL;DR: Examining the expression patterns of large gene families, it is found that they are often more similar than would be expected by chance, indicating that many gene families have been co-opted for specific developmental processes.
Journal ArticleDOI

Target mimicry provides a new mechanism for regulation of microRNA activity

TL;DR: Target mimicry can be generalized beyond the control of Pi homeostasis, as demonstrated using artificial target mimics and coined to define this mechanism of inhibition of miRNA activity.
Journal ArticleDOI

Control of leaf morphogenesis by microRNAs

TL;DR: The JAW locus is identified, which produces a microRNA that can guide messenger RNA cleavage of several TCP genes controlling leaf development, indicating that microRNA-mediated control of leaf morphogenesis is conserved in plants with very different leaf forms.
