KOJAK encodes a cellulose synthase-like protein required for root hair cell morphogenesis in Arabidopsis.
The cell wall is an important determinant of plant cell form. Here we define a class of Arabidopsis root hair mutants with defective cell walls. Plants homozygous for kojak (kjk) mutations initiate root hairs that rupture at their tip soon after initiation. The KJK gene was isolated by positional cl...
