Project description

BREAKING OF ASYMMETRY IN THE STOMATAL LINEAGE (BASL) plays a pivotal role in regulating asymmetric cell division of stomatal lineage cells in Arabidopsis. Two BASL-like proteins (BSLLs) were identified in Arabidopsis, which share the indispensable C-terminal conserved domain of BASL. The aim of this project is to characterize the function of BSLLs in stomatal development.
