The actin cytoskeleton is required to elaborate and maintain spatial patterning during trichome cell morphogenesis in Arabidopsis thaliana. Mathur J, Spielhofer P, Kost B, Chua N. Development. 1999 Dec;126(24):5559-68. ...... but branched trichomes which phenocopied trichomes of mutants belonging to the 'distorted' class. Subsequent analysis of the actin cytoskeleton in trichomes of the distorted mutants, alien, crooked, distorted1, gnarled, klunker and wurm uncovered actin organization defects in each case. Treatments of wild-type seedlings with microtubule-interacting drugs elicited a radically different trichome phenotype characterized by isotropic growth and a severe inhibition of branch ...... |
