Mp2g00330 MpLOS1 experimental subject Functionally studied via loss-of-function mutants (vj99, vj86) showing abnormal green outgrowths, complementation, and eGFP/GUS localization to ventral apical-notch regions and ventral scales. Found to suppress lateral-organ identity by repressing cell division and chloroplast differentiation and to maintain the apical meristem; cross-species expression rescued the rice g1 mutant, indicating conserved function.
Mp3g23400 MpEF1 experimental tool proMpEF promoter used to drive the LTI6B-GFP plasma-membrane marker for visualizing cells in apical meristems.
Mp8g08780 MpYUC2 experimental tool proMpYUC2:GUS reporter used as a notch/meristem marker to visualize and count apical meristems, showing dispersed staining in Mplos1 mutants versus restricted WT notch staining.
