Among the factors that co-ordinate the process of ovule formation, the transcription factors CUP-SHAPED COTYLEDON 1 (CUC1) and CUC2 and the hormone cytokinin (CK) have a particularly prominent role. Indeed, the absence of both CUC1 and CUC2 causes a severe reduction in ovule number, a phenotype that can be rescued by CK treatment. In this study, we combined CK quantification with an integrative genome-wide target identification approach to select Arabidopsis genes regulated by CUCs that are also involved in CK metabolism. We focused our attention on the functional characterization of UDP-GLUCOSYL TRANSFERASE 85A3 (UGT85A3) and UGT73C1, which are up-regulated in the absence of CUC1 and CUC2 and encode enzymes able to catalyse CK inactivation by O-glucosylation. Our results demonstrate a role for these UGTs as a link between CUCs and CK homeostasis, and highlight the importance of CUCs and CKs in the determination of seed yield."}],"file_date_updated":"2020-07-14T12:46:25Z","article_processing_charge":"No","isi":1,"user_id":"c635000d-4b10-11ee-a964-aac5a93f6ac1","department":[{"_id":"EvBe"}],"publisher":"Oxford University Press","day":"26","file":[{"relation":"main_file","file_size":1292128,"access_level":"open_access","checksum":"ca3b6711040b1662488aeb3d1f961f13","date_created":"2018-12-17T10:44:16Z","content_type":"application/pdf","date_updated":"2020-07-14T12:46:25Z","creator":"dernst","file_name":"2018_JournalExperimBotany_Cucinotta.pdf","file_id":"5691"}],"type":"journal_article","page":"5169 - 5176","has_accepted_license":"1","doi":"10.1093/jxb/ery281","acknowledgement":"This work was funded by the Ministry of Education, Youth and Sports of the Czech Republic through the National Program of Sustainability (grant no.
