“…In Arabidopsis, the inhibition of RBF or RP gene expression induces a wide variety of plant growth and developmental phenotypes, including embryo lethality, delayed flowering time, and abnormal leaf and root phenotypes (Supplemental Data Sets 3 and 4). Cytological investigations have shown that the nucleolus becomes larger in tormoz (Griffith et al, 2007), nof1 (Harscoët et al, 2010), apum23 (Abbasi et al, 2010), rid2 (Ohbayashi et al, 2011;Shinohara et al, 2014), ren1 (Reňák et al, 2014), la1 (Fleurdepine et al, 2007), and domino1 (Lahmy et al, 2004) compared with wild-type plants. By contrast, the nucleolus is small in fem111 (Portereiko et al, 2006) and disorganized in nuc1 (Pontvianne et al, 2007) plants.…”
