Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In Arabidopsis flower development, we show that stem cell activities are actively terminated by multiple genetic pathways (Nature Comm 2018; EMBO J. 2018; Plant Cell 2019). To understand how program cell death (PCD) is involved in reproductive development, we established PCD reporter lines and examined their expression patterns. PCD reporters are induced in mature shoot apical meristems (SAMs) and fully grown mature petals. By performing RNA-seq in immature and mature SAMs and petals, we identified signaling pathways genes in reactive oxygen species (ROS) and jasmonic acid (JA), respectively. These results show that PCD happens in plant reproduction through multiple signaling cascades.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
花がおしべやめしべをつくり、次世代の種を残すためには、花の元となる幹細胞が十分に増殖した後に、増殖を止める必要がある。私達は生殖にともなっておきる植物のプログラム細胞死について解析した結果、新たに、茎頂や花弁においてプログラム細胞死が起きていることがわかった。茎頂においてはROSシグナル系路が、花弁においてはジャスモン酸シグナル系路が特異的に誘導されていた。プログラム細胞死が調節できるようになれば、園芸植物の花の改良や穀物類の増産などが期待できる。
