TL;DR: The results suggest that LEC1 is an important regulator of embryo development that activates the transcription of genes required for both embryo morphogenesis and cellular differentiation.

TL;DR: The cloned LEC2 gene is cloned on the basis of its chromosomal position and it is shown that the predicted polypeptide contains a B3 domain, a DNA-binding motif unique to plants that is characteristic of several transcription factors.

TL;DR: The pleiotropic effects of the mutation indicate that the LEC1 gene plays a fundamental role in regulating late embryogenesis, and it is concluded that postgerminative development is initiated prematurely and that embryonic and postgermination programs operate simultaneously in mutant embryos.

TL;DR: The isolated TAN gene was isolated and it was shown that the predicted polypeptide has seven WD repeat motifs, suggesting that TAN forms complexes with other proteins to control many aspects of embryo development.

TL;DR: In this article , the coupled dynamics of geometrically and material-wise imperfect axially functionally graded (AFG) graphene nanoplatelets-reinforced viscoelastic third-order shear deformable beams were explored.
