Chromatin assembly factor CAF-1 is required for cellular differentiation during plant development. Exner V, Taranto P, Schonrock N, Gruissem W, Hennig L. Development. 2006 Nov;133(21):4163-72.
...... leaf size and trichome differentiation. CAF-1 is needed to restrict branching of trichomes on rosette leaves. Increased trichome branching in CAF-1 mutants is not strictly correlated with increased nuclear DNA content. In addition, fas2 glabra3 double mutants show an additive genetic interaction, demonstrating that CAF-1 acts genetically parallel to the GLABRA3-containing, endoreduplication-coupled trichome branching pathway. However, CAF-1 is often needed to restrict ......
