CER questions

10/5/06
? Boss 2006

 1) In Figure 7, the Arabidopsis plants displayed filamentous
structures. Could these parts be petals, siliques, or some other part in its
very early development or just an outgrowth like extra cartilage on a mammal?

 2) What does VFL and FT stand for?

 3) Did they do copy number for the transgene on either the
tobacco or Arabidopsis lines? I think dosage effect would play a part in the
severity of the phenotypes of these plants.

 
In general, I like this article because of the detail it
shows in the SAM and floral development; the pictures are nice too. Of course,
it would be great if the methodology of transforming grape was fully established
at the time these experiments were conducted.
