Screening for novel cell cycle progression and division plane orientation mutants with Arabidopsis thaliana. 

What genetic factors are essential for proper cell cycle progression and division plane orientation in plants?

Scientists have started to piece together the essential factors for proper cell cycle progression and division plane orientation in plants (see our shortlist below). However, the puzzle is far from complete. 

We still don't know how many pieces of the puzzle are missing, and of the factors that have been identified, we still don't know exactly how they fit together.

Known factors that that contribute to division plane orientation establishment and maintenance:
