Source Description
UniprotDEVELOPMENTAL STAGE: Highly expressed in the early globular stage embryo before 2 days after pollination (DAP), but not in the endosperm. At 3 and 4 DAP, expression is restricted to the region around or just below the center of the ventral side of the embryo, where the shoot apex subsequently arises. During the transition to the shoot apex differentiation stage, expression is divided between the upper and basal regions of the shoot area, and the notch between the first leaf primordium and epiblast, respectively. When the first leaf primordia is evident, expression is localized to the notches between the shoot apical meristem (SAM) and the first leaf primordium and the putative second leaf primordium. Expressed uniformly in the inflorescence meristem, but after the transition from inflorescence to the floral phase, located specifically in the notches between the floral meristem and glume primordia. At later stages of flower development, uniformly expressed throughout the corpus of the meristem, and in the notches between glume primordia, but less well defined than in the previous stage. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:10488233}.
