Kiyoshi Mashiguchi,Keita Tanaka,Tatsuya Sakai,Satoko Sugawara,Hiroshi Kawaide,Masahiro Natsume,Atsushi Hanada,Takashi Yaeno,Ken Shirasu,Hong Yao,Paula McSteen,Yunde Zhao,Ken-ichiro Hayashi,Yuji Kamiya,Hiroyuki Kasahara +14 more
TL;DR: In this article, the TAA family produces indole-3-pyruvic acid (IPA) and the YUC family functions in the conversion of IPA to IAA in Arabidopsis.
Journal ArticleDOI
Expression Patterns and Mutant Phenotype of teosinte branched1 Correlate With Growth Suppression in Maize and Teosinte
TL;DR: RNA in situ hybridization showed that tb1 was expressed in maize axillary meristems and in stamens of ear primordia, consistent with a function of suppressing growth of these tissues.
Journal ArticleDOI
sparse inflorescence1 encodes a monocot-specific YUCCA-like gene required for vegetative and reproductive development in maize.
Andrea Gallavotti,Solmaz Barazesh,Simon T. Malcomber,Darren H. Hall,David A. Jackson,Robert J. Schmidt,Paula McSteen +6 more
TL;DR: Analysis of the interaction between spi1 and genes regulating auxin transport indicate that Auxin transport and biosynthesis function synergistically to regulate the formation of axillary meristems and lateral organs in maize.
Journal ArticleDOI
vanishing tassel2 encodes a grass-specific tryptophan aminotransferase required for vegetative and reproductive development in maize.
Kimberly A. Phillips,Andrea L. Skirpan,Xing Liu,Ashley R. Christensen,Thomas L. Slewinski,Christopher J. Hudson,Solmaz Barazesh,Jerry D. Cohen,Simon T. Malcomber,Paula McSteen +9 more
TL;DR: Phylogenetic analyses indicate that vt2 is a co-ortholog of TRYPTOPHAN AMINOTRANSFERASE of ARABIDOPSIS1 (TAA1), which converts Trp to indole-3-pyruvic acid in one of four hypothesized Trp-dependent auxin biosynthesis pathways.
Journal ArticleDOI
Hormonal regulation of branching in grasses.
TL;DR: This illustration shows how axillary meristems form in the axils of leaves during vegetative development and during reproductive development, which gives rise to flowering in grasses.
