Expression data from Arabidopsis plants overexpressing CLE３ in roots

Plant hormones and small secretory peptides often function as environmental stress mediators. Some recent reports indicate that small secretory peptides, such as CLAVATA3/EMBRYO SURROUNDING REGION-RELATED (CLE), also function as mediators of environmental stimuli. CLE３ is induced in roots by defense elicitor treatment. Plants without functional CLE3 showed compromized defense gene responses in shoots when plant roots were treated with NaSA. Here, we identified specific genes downstream of CLE3 in roots and shoots with transformed Arabidopsis plants. To identify specific genes downstream of CLE3, GeneChip analyses were performed using roots and shoots separately collected from arabidopsis seedlings, roots of which were treated with estrogen or DMSO for 24h.
