A molecular view of plant centromeres
Although plants were the organisms of choice in several classical centromere studies,
molecular and biochemical studies of plant centromeres have lagged behind those in model …

Arabidopsis thaliana
EM Meyerowitz - Annual review of genetics, 1987 - authors.library.caltech.edu
Arabidopsis thaliana is a small weed in the mustard family. It has been a convenient subject

The late flowering phenotype of fwa mutants is caused by gain-of-function epigenetic alleles of a homeodomain gene
The transition to flowering in Arabidopsis thaliana is delayed in fwa mutant plants. FWA was
identified by loss-of-function mutations in normally flowering revertants of the fwa mutant …

Phenotypic instability and rapid gene silencing in newly formed Arabidopsis allotetraploids
Allopolyploid hybridization serves as a major pathway for plant evolution, but in its early
stages it is associated with phenotypic and genomic instabilities that are poorly understood …
