Isolation and Characterization of the SIAMESE Family: A Novel Class of Cell Cycle Regulators in Plants

Recessive mutations in the SIAMESE (SIM) gene of Arabidopsis result in multicellular trichomes harboring individual nuclei with a low ploidy level, a phenotype strikingly different from that of wild-type trichomes, which are single cells with a nuclear DNA content of approximately 16-32C.
