Growth‐regulating factors: conserved and divergent roles in plant growth and development and potential value for crop improvement

Abstract: SUMMARY High yield and stress resistance are the major prerequisites for successful crop cultivation, and can be achieved by modifying plant architecture. Evolutionarily conserved growth‐regulating factors (GRFs) control the growth of different tissues and organs of plants. Here, we provide a systematic overview of the expression patterns of GRF genes and the structural features of GRF proteins in different plant species. Moreover, we illustrate the conserved and divergent roles of GRFs, microRNA396 (miR396), … Show more

“…By contrast, the majority of GRFs typically feature a single WRC domain (Omidbakhshfard et al ., 2015). The WRC domain is associated with DNA‐binding and the localization of the transcription factor to the nucleus (Omidbakhshfard et al ., 2015; P. Liu et al ., 2023; Y. Liu et al ., 2023). Consequently, this structural differentiation may position PtoGRF9 on a unique regulatory pathway in leaf development, distinct from other members of the GRF family.…”

“…Leveraging genome‐wide association studies (GWAS) on natural populations presents a robust methodology for identifying allelic variations and unearthing novel genes associated with complex quantitative growth‐related traits (Neale & Kremer, 2011; Visscher et al ., 2017). Utilizing GWAS in Populus , the genetic underpinnings of leaf morphology were unraveled (Mähler et al ., 2020), shedding light on the functional mechanisms of allelic variation in PtoYAB11 (P. Liu et al ., 2023; Y. Liu et al ., 2023). Especially in developmental traits such as Arabidopsis thaliana vegetative growth (Meyer et al ., 2021), and wheat stem elongation phase (Guo et al ., 2018), dynamic GWAS has identified a set of time‐specific and general genes, significantly advancing our understanding of the genetic architecture of developmental phenotypes (McMullen et al ., 2009; Tam et al ., 2019).…”

“…GIF2 and GIF3 are two additional proteins instrumental in cell proliferation and the development of lateral organs [ 16 ]. G if2 and gif3 mutations have been associated with the production of smaller lateral organs than the wild-type plant species in A. thaliana [ 17 , 18 ]. The single gif mutant lines in A. thaliana presented a phenotype akin to the control, whereas the gif triple mutant gif1/gif2/gif3 exhibited an aberrant pistil [ 18 ].…”

“…For practical purpose, these expression cassettes have to be excised from engineered plants [ 30 ]. GRF transcription factors contain conserved WRC and QLQ domains in the N-terminal region, and GIF proteins are a class of transcriptional co-activators harboring conserved SNH domain; GRFs interact with GIFs through the interaction of QLQ and SNH domains to form a functional transcriptional complex (GRF-GIF) [ 31 , 32 , 33 , 34 ]. Overexpression of Triticum aestivum GRF4-GIF1 ( TaGRF4 - TaGIF1 ) or its orthologs substantially increases the efficiencies of embryo and shoot regeneration in dicot and monocot plants, including wheat, rice, Citrus , grape, watermelon, and lettuce, and dramatically expand the scope of genotypes suitable for genetic transformation [ 35 , 36 , 37 , 38 ].…”
