Abstract

We have recently used an infra red thermal imaging based screen to identify novel mutants in Arabidopsis that carry lesions in guard cell function and development. We have selected three of these mutants for further study. The objectives of this application are to use chromosome walking to identify the genes responsible for the mutant phenotypes and to characterise the role of these genes in guard cell signalling and development. (Joint with grant 18229).
