Transcriptional analysis for cell-cell communication during graft union development in Arabidopsis

ABSTRACT: Grafting is an ancient cloning method that has been used widely for thousands of years in agricultural practices. However, the molecular mechanisms for graft union development are still largely unknown. The developmental stage of graft union was characterized based on micrografting method. Microarray data revealed a signal exchange process between cells of scion and stock at 1dag, which reestablished the communication network in graft union. This process was concomitant with the cleaning of cell debris, and both of the processes were initiated by a wound-induced program. The results demonstrate the feasibility and potential power of investigating various plant developmental processes by this method and represent a primary and significant step in interpretation of the molecular mechanisms u
