Abstract

AbstractGrasses exhibit a large variety of diverse inflorescence architectures, from complex branched inflorescences inOryzeae(rice) to simple spike-type inflorescences inTriticeae(e.g. barley, wheat). Inflorescence architecture depends on shape, longevity and determinacy of meristems that direct growth of the main rachis and lateral branches, but how individual meristem activities are determined and integrated within complex inflorescences is not yet understood. We found that activity of distinct meristems in the barley inflorescence is coordinated by a signalling pathway comprising the receptor like kinaseHordeum vulgareCLAVATA1 (HvCLV1) and the secreted CLAVATA3/ENDOSPERM SURROUNDING REGION (CLE)-family peptide FON2- LIKE CLE PROTEIN1 (HvFCP1). HvFCP1 interacts with HvCLV1 to promote spikelet formation but restricts inflorescence meristem and rachilla meristem proliferation.Hvfcp1orHvclv1mutants generate branched inflorescences with additional rows of spikelets and supernumerary florets. Transcriptome analysis reveals thatHvFCP1/HvCLV1signalling controls inflorescence branching through the regulation of trehalose-6-phosphate synthesis and sugar transport. Our discoveries reveal the potential to engineer barley inflorescence architecture by manipulating regulation of distinct meristem activities.
