Epidermal Cell Fate Determination in Arabidopsis: Patterns Defined by a Steroid-Inducible Regulator

The Arabidopsis mutant ttg lacks both trichomes (epidermal hairs) and anthocyanin pigments. Trichomes and anthocyanins are restored by the constitutive expression of the maize transcriptional regulator (R). The expression of an R-glucocorticoid receptor chimeric protein results in a steroid hormone-...
