Control of Plant Organogenesis: Genetic and Biochemical Signals in Plant Organ form and Development

  • Chapter
Thin Cell Layer Culture System: Regeneration and Transformation Applications

Abstract

Plant growth and development is a continuous process throughout the lifetime of a plant, contrasting to animals in which development of all major organs is defined at an early developmental stage. Determinate growth results in organs of limited maximum size, while indeterminate growth produces tissues of undefined maximum size. Shoot and root apical meristems (SAMs and RAMs) have unlimited, indeterminate growth along a longitudinal axis, while lateral organs (leaves) and meristems have determinate growth patterns for all three developmental axes. It is the spatially and temporally coordinated developmental events of the SAM and RAM that result in the final plant body. The shoot system of plants is Ruined both during embryonic and non-embryonic development, each governed by different control mechanisms.
