| Gene ID | Name | Evidence / Role | Function (this paper) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Mp6g07050 | MpCLE1 | experimental subject | MpCLE1, an H-type (TDIF-like) CLE gene, was the main focus. Loss-of-function mutants showed expanded proliferative regions and enlarged gametangiophores, while overexpression reduced meristem activity. The 12-aa CLE peptide is its functional domain, restricting gametophytic meristem proliferation. |
| Mp1g09960 | MpTDR | experimental subject | MpTDR, the TDIF-type receptor, mediates MpCLE1 function; knockout mutants were insensitive to MpCLE1 overexpression. MpTDR:GUS was detected in the dorsal apical meristem. |
| Mp5g18050 | MpCLE2 | sequence comparator | One of two CLE genes in the genome, R-type (CLV3-like), contrasted with MpCLE1. |
| Mp1g27720 | MpCLV1 | sequence comparator | A second CLE receptor encoded in the genome alongside MpTDR. |
| Mp3g23400 | MpEF1 | experimental tool | Used as a constitutive promoter to drive MpCLE1 overexpression; expressed throughout the thallus. |
