Abstract
VTI13 and VPS26C are proteins required for endosomal trafficking in plants and that participate in a shared pathway controlling the fate of plasma membrane proteins after endocytosis and delivery to the trans-Golgi. vti13 and vps26c show deficiencies in polarized root hair growth. These phenotypes are suppressed in the vti13vps26c double mutant. We are interested in identifying a cellular mechanism responsible for this phenotype. RNA sequencing of WT, vti13, vps26c, and vti13vps26c will allow us to identify differential gene expression specific to the double mutant that may allow us to develop models to explain the genetic suppression of root hair growth.
