CC -!- SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Nucleus {ECO:0000255|PROSITE-ProRule:PRU00981}.
CC -!- TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Expressed in lateral root caps, young leaves,
CC stipules, maturing pith cells of the stem, differentiating vascular
CC cells, shoot apical meristems and flowers.
CC {ECO:0000269|PubMed:11245574}.
CC -!- DEVELOPMENTAL STAGE: During flower initiation, expressed in the
CC peripheral zone of the shoot apical meristem. Confined to the anlagen
CC of successive flower buds yet to arise. Later expressed in abaxial and
CC adaxial sepal primordia, but not in sepals. When sepals initiate,
CC localized in the region interior to them. Within the gynoecium,
CC detected in the initiating and developing medial regions, and then in
CC the developing septum and stigma. SPT expression also occurs in sub-
CC regions of developing ovules, and in the wall and dehiscence zone of
CC the maturing fruit. As the petals develop, becomes restricted to the
CC adaxial epidermis. In stamen expression increase in the vicinity of the
CC archesporial cells and in cells undergoing divisions to produce
CC sporogenous and secondary parietal cells of the anther locules.
CC Expressed in the tapetum and microspore mother cells until the
CC initiation of meiosis. Also detected in stomium and filaments.
CC {ECO:0000269|PubMed:11245574}.
CC -!- INDUCTION: Down-regulated by the A class gene AP2 in the first whorl
CC and by ARF3/ETT in gynoecium. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:11245574}.
