In flowering plants, double fertilization of the female gametes, the egg and central cell, initiates seed development to give rise to a diploid embryo and the triploid endosperm. In the absence of fertilization, the MEA-FIE Polycomb Repressive Complex 2 (PRC2) represses this developmental process by histone methylation of certain target genes. The imprinted gene MEDEA (MEA), as well as the ... [more]
