Arabidopsis thaliana HD-ZIPIII triple mutant

Caption

TheArabidopsis thaliana HD-ZIPIII triple mutant exhibits severe developmental defects, including stunted growth and malformed floral structures. Introducing a functional copy of the CORONA (CNA) gene restores the plant’s normal, wildtype appearance, but a version ofCNAlacking its START domain fails to do so. This highlights the essential role of the START domain inCNAtranscription factor function. (Image: Sarah Chourdury)
