Four mutant alleles elucidate the role of the G2 protein in the development of C(4) and C(3) photosynthesizing maize tissues.
Maize leaf blades differentiate dimorphic photosynthetic cell types, the bundle sheath and mesophyll, between which the reactions of C(4) photosynthesis are partitioned. Leaf-like organs of maize such as husk leaves, however, develop a C(3) pattern of differentiation whereby ribulose bisphosphate ca...
