Gene Details:

• Gene ID:
• Gene Symbol: MtNAM
• Gene Name: NO APICAL MERISTEM
• Genome:
• Species: Medicago truncatula

Functional Descriptions:

• NO APICAL MERISTEM (MtNAM) regulates floral organ identity and lateral organ separation in Medicago truncatula.
• MtNAM is highly expressed in vegetative shoot buds and inflorescence apices, specifically at boundaries between the shoot apical meristem and leaf/flower primordia.
• Mutations in MtNAM also lead to fused cotyledons and leaflets of the compound leaf as well as a defective shoot apical meristem.
• Our results revealed that MtNAM shares the role of CUC/NAM family genes in lateral organ separation and compound leaf development, and is also required for floral organ identity and development.
