Like LAX, BA1 is transcribed in the region where the lateral meristems will form and in the adaxial portion of emerging lateral meristems. In contrast to lax mutants, ba1 mutants do not form any lateral meristems, which may indicate that maize lacks the SPA pathway of rice that can substitute for LAX during the vegetative period of development.

After the formation of ectopic shoots from the hypocotyls, cup plants are compromised in organ separation. Petiole-petiole and petiole-stem fusions are accompanied by the loss of lateral meristems.

These defects result in the development of ectopic shoots from the Arabidopsis stem. In addition, strong patterning defects are observed the vascular bundles and leaves of ifl1 mutants.

In addition, stem veins are misdirected and grow downward beneath the stem surface. These misdirected veins induce the formation of rows of ectopic meristems.

Leyser MAX3/CCD7 is a carotenoid cleavage dioxygenase required for the synthesis of a novel plant signaling molecule Curr Biol 14 2004 1232 1238 The isolation of the MAX3 gene provides additional evidence for the production of a branching-inhibiting signal in the root. The MAX3 protein is closely related to MAX4 and can cleave carotenoids.

The MAX1 gene encodes a Cytochrome P450 enzyme, which is hypothesized to further modify an already mobile molecule.

Beveridge The branching gene RAMOSUS1 mediates interactions among two novel signals and auxin in pea Plant Cell 17 2005 464 474 Using a combination of grafting experiments and analysis of RMS1 transcript accumulation, the authors clearly demonstrate how auxin signalling is linked to the synthesis of the root-derived branching inhibitor. RMS1 transcript levels decreased in decapitated plants but increased after apical auxin application, and thus it seems clear that the RMS1- (or MAX3/MAX4-)derived signal is regulated by the main shoot apex via auxin signalling. The authors provide evidence that RMS2 is involved in a pathway that regulates RMS1 transcript accumulation independently of auxin signalling.
