Abstract

The differentiation of cell types in plants depends on the continuous interpretation of positional information. Plant organs are established by patterns of cell division that are often highly variable, yet the final arrangement of cell types within each organ remains the same. A current challenge is to understand the means by which cells of varying clonal history arrive at the same differentiated fate in the development of a plant organ. The ideal system for the study of this developmental control would be an organ with few cell types, with defined patterns of cell origin, and with molec? ular markers for the differentiation of the individual cell
