Plant growth is characterised both by continued growth and organogenesis throughout development, as well as by environmental influences on the rate and pattern of these processes. This necessitates a close relationship between cell cycle control, differentiation and development that can be readily observed and studied. The sequencing of the Arabidopsis genome has revealed the full complexity of cell cycle regulators in plants, creating a challenge to understand how these genes control plant growth and differentiation, and how they are integrated with intrinsic and external signals. Here, we review the control of the cell cycle and examine how it is integrated with proliferative activity within meristems, and during the differentiation processes leading to leaf and lateral root formation.
植物生长的特点是在整个发育过程中持续生长和器官发生，以及环境对这些过程的速率和模式产生影响。这就需要细胞周期控制、分化和发育之间建立密切的关系，而这种关系很容易被观察和研究。拟南芥基因组的测序揭示了植物细胞周期调控因子的全部复杂性，这给理解这些基因如何控制植物生长和分化，以及它们如何与内在和外在信号整合带来了挑战。在这里，我们综述细胞周期的控制，并研究它如何与分生组织内的增殖活动以及导致叶片和侧根形成的分化过程相结合。
