Tóm tắt

Cytokinins are involved in plant cell proliferation leading to plant growth and morphogenesis. The amp1 mutant of Arabidopsis has a five-fold higher level of cytokinin than the wild type plant. The mutant has a number of phenotypes with apparently increased cell proliferation rate similar to those seen in plants transformed with an ipt gene and having higher cytokinin levels. In order to identify molecular factors responsible for this cytokinin-induced higher cell division rate in the mutant we have examined cyclin genes expression levels. While expression of the CycD1 and cycC cyclins is not altered or is slightly decreased in the mutant, cyclin CycD3, is more highly expressed. The level of the CycD3 expression decreases in a “revertant” of amp1, meaning that the over-expression of this particular cyclin is linked to the phenotype of the amp1 mutant. Thus the expression of a specific G1 cyclin is upregulated in a mutant which has more cytokinin than the wild type.
