Other claims from this paper (8)
- Observation Mutations in six previously uncharacterized Arabidopsis genes required for cytokinesis were identified.
- Observation The mutants have wall stubs, gapped walls, and multinucleate cells.
- Observation The new mutants resemble knolle, keule, hinkel, and pleiade mutants phenotypically.
- Association Stomatal phenotype severity roughly correlated with cytokinesis defect severity.
- Association Tissue-culture growth capability correlated with cytokinesis defect severity.
- Mechanism Primary cytokinesis defects have secondary effects on body organization, organ number, and cellular differentiation.
- Mechanism Primary cytokinesis defects also cause organ fusions and perturbations of the nuclear cycle.
- Observation Two of ten loci are required for both cytokinesis and root hair morphogenesis.
