In this paper, a novel Arabidopsis mutant of Columbia ecotype was preliminarily characterized by phenotypic observation and genetic analysis. Most distinct phenotypes in this mutant were the tender and pliant shoots in the early growth phase and somewhat dense siliques below the shoot apex at maturity phase. In addition, the growth of the main and side shoots was stunted and rosette and axillary leaves were easy to age. Genetic analysis showed that the mutant phenotype was not co-segregated with the T-DNA insertion or kanamycin resistance, and the mutation was dominant. The gene responsible for such mutant phenotype remains to be cloned in the future work.
Keywords:Arabidopsis; dominant mutation; genetic analysis; stp mutant; pliant shoot
