Ababidopsis JACKDAW and MAGPIE zinc finger proteins delimit asymmetric cell division and stabilize tissue boundaries by restricting SHORT-ROOT action

A study to show that JACKDAW and MAGPIE zinc finger proteins act in the SHR-dependent feed-forward loop to regulate the range of action of SHORT-CROW and SCARECROW is presented. Results provide evidence that JACKDAW and MAGPIE regulate tissue boundaries and asymmetric cell division, and can control SHORT-CROW and SCARECROW activity.
