Research:
Cell proliferation in the shoot apical meristem determines cell detnation, and maintenance in cell proliferation can potentially induce fasciated/enlarged fruits. My project aims to build up a cell proliferation model for maize, and test out some regulation genes and their function in cell proliferation.
