Control of Arabidopsis shoot stem cell homeostasis by two antagonistic CLE peptide signalling pathways

Stem cell homeostasis in plant shoot meristems requires tight coordination between stem cell proliferation and cell differentiation. In Arabidopsis, stem cells express the secreted dodecapeptide CLAVATA3 (CLV3), which signals through the leucine-rich repeat (LRR)-receptor kinase CLAVATA1 (CLV1) and...

description Stem cell homeostasis in plant shoot meristems requires tight coordination between stem cell proliferation and cell differentiation.
