ABSTRACT:
Isolated or purified nucleic acids, such as SEQ ID NO: 1, encoding a plant protein with repeated WD-40 motifs or fragments of such a protein that regulate plant differentiation or endoreplication. Vectors, host cells and plants comprising such nucleic acids, as well as antisense nucleic acids corresponding to such nucleic acids. Methods of using such nucleic acids, antisense nucleic acids, vectors, host cells, or proteins, for instance, for regulating plant differentiation or endoreplication.
