摘要

AbstractThe dominantKnotted‐1mutations in maize alter development of the leaf blade. Sporadic patches of localized growth, or knots, and fringes of ectopic ligule occur along lateral veins of mutant leaf blades. In addition, bundle sheaths do not completely encircle lateral veins on mutant leaf blades. We have compared mutant leaf blades with wild‐type leaves to determine the precise nature of the perturbed regions. Our analysis includes characterization of epidermal cell shapes, localization of photosynthetic proteins and histology of the leaf. We show that mutant leaf blades are a mosaic of leaf organ components. Affected regions of mutant leaf blades resemble either sheath or auricle tissue in both external and internal features. This conversion of blade cells represents an acropetal shift of more basal parts of the leaf blade region and correlates with previously identified ectopic expression of theKnotted‐1protein in the leaf blade. We propose that inappropriate expression ofKn1interferes with the process of establishment of cell identities, resulting in early termination of the normal blade development program or precocious expression of the sheath and auricle development programs. © 1994 Wiley‐L
