---|---|---|
physiological function | isoform AACT2 function is required for embryogenesis and for normal male gamete transmission. RNAi lines that express reduced levels of isoform AACT2 show pleiotropic phenotypes, including reduced apical dominance, elongated life span and flowering duration, sterility, dwarfing, reduced seed yield and shorter root length. The reduced stature is caused by a reduction in cell size and fewer cells, and male sterility is caused by loss of the pollen coat and premature degeneration of the tapetal cells. The roots of AACT2 RNAi plants show quantitative and qualitative alterations in phytosterol profiles. These phenotypes and biochemical alterations are reversed when AACT2 RNAi plants are grown in the presence of mevalonate | Arabidopsis thaliana |
physiological function | plants lacking isoform AACT1 function are completely viable and show no apparent growth phenotypes | Arabidopsis thaliana |
