TAIR Curator Summary | Encodes a protein with similarity to WUS type homeodomain protein. Required for meristem growth and development and acts through positive regulation of WUS. Loss of function phenotypes include embryo lethality, hyponastic cotyledons, reduced root development and smaller meristems. Phenotypes can be rescued by addition of sucrose in the growth media. Overexpression can partially rescue the triple mutant cytokinin receptor phenotype suggesting HB-3 is a downstream effector of cytokinin signaling. |
