Principle Investigator: M. Kathryn BartonProposal number: IOS-0929413Title: Arabidopsis 2010: The ad/abaxial regulatory network of ArabidopsisIn plants, the ad/abaxial regulatory network governs some of the most basic elements of plant growth and function. In the simple experimental plant Arabidopsis, this includes the organization of the cells in the leaf necessary for efficient light capture and gas exchange. This system also controls the formation of new branches. To date a small set of transcription factors - proteins that regulate the activity of genes - have been found to control this regulatory network. This project will identify the genes that these factors control and will discover how these genes act together in a network to result in the highly coordinated growth that occurs in the plant. Understanding how the plant body is formed is fundamental to our understanding of plants that we grow for food, fiber or fuel as well as to our more general understanding of the natural environment. This understanding can be used to improve our approaches to managing our agricultural and wild lands.

Kathryn Barton提案编号：IOS-0929413标题：拟南芥2010：拟南芥的近轴/远轴调控网络在植物中，近轴/远轴调控网络控制着植物生长和功能的一些最基本的元素。 在简单的实验植物拟南芥中，这包括有效的光捕获和气体交换所必需的叶片细胞的组织。 这个系统还控制着新分支的形成。 到目前为止，已经发现一小部分转录因子--调节基因活性的蛋白质--控制着这个调控网络。 该项目将确定这些因素控制的基因，并将发现这些基因如何在网络中共同作用，从而导致植物高度协调的生长。 了解植物体是如何形成的，对于我们理解植物是至关重要的，我们种植的食物，纤维或燃料，以及我们对自然环境的更全面的理解。 这种理解可以用来改善我们管理农业和野生土地的方法。
