In every Arabidopsis flower, the transition from the floral meristem (FM) to terminally differentiated floral organs is temporally regulated to ensure that the right numbers of floral organs form. At stage 6 of floral development, the homeotic gene AGAMOUS (AG) represses the stem cell establisher WU...
