Progeny from a transformed Arabidopsis plant (produced by the
Agrobacterium-mediated seed transformation procedure) were found to be
segregating for an altered trichome phenotype. The mutant plants have
normal leaf trichomes but completely lack trichomes usually found on the
stem. The mutation is tightly linked to a T-DNA insert. Complementation
analysis with genetically characterized trichome mutants revealed that the
new mutation is an allele of the GL1 locus. The new trichome mutant has
been designated gl1-43. DNA gel blot analysis indicated that the insert
site contains a complex array of at least four tandemly linked T-DNA units
oriented as both direct and inverted repeats. A genomic library,
constructed using DNA from gl1-43 plants, was used to clone DNA that flanks
the left end of the T-DNA insert. The availability of DNA from the region
interrupted by the insert has allowed initial characterization of the
wild-type GL1 gene and will permit the eventual cloning and sequencing of
this developmentally interesting gene.
