Abstract

Plants, with cells fixed in place by rigid walls, often utilize spatial and temporally distinct cell division programs to organize and maintain organs. This leads to the question of how developmental regulators interact with the cell cycle machinery to link cell division events with particular developmental trajectories. In Arabidopsis leaves, the development of stomata, two-celled epidermal valves that mediate plant-atmosphere gas exchange, relies on a series of oriented stem cell-like asymmetric divisions followed by a single symmetric division. The stomatal lineage is embedded in a tissue in which other cells transition from proliferation to postmitotic differentiation earlier, necessitating stomatal lineage-specific factors to prolong competence to divide. We show that the D-type cyclin, CYCD7;1, is specifically expressed just prior to the symmetric guard cell-forming division, and that it is limiting for this division. Further, we find that CYCD7;1 is capable of promoting divisions in multiple contexts, likely through RBR1-dependent promotion of the G1/S transition, but that CYCD7;1 is regulated at the transcriptional level by cell type-specific transcription factors that confine its expression to the appropriate developmental window
