The WUSCHEL gene, a heteroglytic transcription factor that maintains the top singully tissue in southern mustard, is also involved in the formation of lateral buds.

Plants continue to produce new growth points and branch in post-embryo development.
tissue formed at the leafy armpits as growth points has stem cells.
re-establishing the stem cell tissue center in the leaf armpits has yet to be studied.
the study team at the Institute of Genetics and Developmental Biology of the Chinese Academy of Sciences found that the isotropic transcription factor WUSCHEL (WUS) gene, which maintains the top splate tissue in the anchovies, was also involved in the formation of lateral buds.
earlier study, the Coking Rain Bell Team found that the starting process in lateral buds relied on signaling highs of the plant hormone cell division hormone (Wang et al., 2014 The Plant Cell 26:2055-2067).
further studies have found that the downstream transcription factor Type-B ARR of the cytosphrine path can directly activate WUS expression.
the activation of THEWUS is highly space-time specific and occurs only at the leaves of mature leaves.
further studies have found that the activation of WUS is associated with the state of histamine modification, especially by hisoprotein methylation and acetylation regulation.
the following image, the study answers how stem cell tissue centers are established during the establishment of new growth points.
the study was published June 2 in The Plant Cell (DOI: 10.1105/tpc.16.00579). wang , a graduated doctoral student in the
-joo Yuling Research Group, is the first author of the paper, and wang Jiawei of the Institute of Plant Physiology and Ecology of the Shanghai Institute of Life Sciences of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, and Zhao Zhong of the University of Science and Technology of China are participating in the cooperation.
the research was funded by the National Natural Science Foundation of China, the "973" project of the Ministry of Science and Technology, the "People's Program" of the Central Group Ministry and the National Key Laboratory of Plant Genomics.
two other articles published in Plant Cells report that this regulatory mechanism also acts on the establishment of stem cells during plant regeneration (Zhang et al., 2017, DOI: 10.1105/tpc.16.00863; Meng et al., 2017, DOI: 10.1105/tpc.16.00640).
