Metabolic control of gametophore shoot formation through arginine in the moss Physcomitrium patens
Joint press release (in Japanese)
Highlights:
- AN3/GIF1 family promotes gametophore shoot formation in Physcomitrium patens
- Arginine metabolism is a major metabolic target of AN3/GIF1 family signaling
- Perturbation in arginine level results in stunted gametophore morphology
- Ectopic Arabidopsis AN3/GIF1 is sufficient to rescue the defects in gametophores
