Control of Stomatal Distribution on the Arabidopsis Leaf Surface
Jeanette A. Nadeau,Fred D. Sack*
Stomata regulate gas exchange and are distributed across
the leaf epidermis with characteristic spacing. Arabidopsis
stomataare produced by asymmetric cell divisions. Mutations in the
geneTOO MANY MOUTHS (TMM) disrupt patterning by
randomizing the planeof formative asymmetric divisions and by
permitting ectopic divisions.TMM encodes a leucine-rich
repeat-containing receptor-like proteinexpressed in
proliferative postprotodermal cells. TMM appearsto function in a
position-dependent signaling pathway that controlsthe plane of
patterning divisions as well as the balance betweenstem cell renewal
and differentiation in stomatal and epidermaldevelopment.
