Abstract IBN 95-31477 This action funds a research starter grant to a former NSF Minority Postdoctoral Fellow. The research supported here continues a molecular and genetic analysis of root-hair development in the model plant Arabidopsis thaliana. Two root hair defective mutants are being analyzed to determine if they have impaired membrane transport properties. Preliminary results suggest that the mutations may be in genes of the Tonoplast Instrinsic Protein family. If so, they could be useful tools in the study of differentiation and cell growth in this important plant model system.

摘要IBN 95-31477 该行动为一名前NSF少数族裔博士后研究员提供研究启动资助。 这里支持的研究继续进行模式植物拟南芥根毛发育的分子和遗传分析。 两个根毛缺陷突变体正在分析，以确定他们是否有受损的膜运输性能。 初步结果表明，突变可能发生在液泡膜固有蛋白家族的基因中。 如果是这样的话，他们可能是有用的工具，在这个重要的植物模型系统的分化和细胞生长的研究。
