Mob1 genes are primarily involved in the cell cycle progression and mitosis exit in yeasts and animals. The function of a Mob1-like gene (At5g45550) from Arabidopsis thaliana was investigated using and immunological staining. AtMob1-like duanyu1615 silenced lines showed a reduced radial expansion of the inflorescence stem and a reduced elongation zone of the primary root. Morphological features of plant organs were accompanied by a reduction in cell size. The fertility of AtMob1-like duanyu1615 silenced lines was very low as seed production was strongly reduced. About 2% of the progeny of AtMob1-like duanyu1615 silenced plants were tetraploid. The female and male sporogenesis was affected differentially. The ovules developed irregularly and one third of the megaspores and embryo sacs degenerated prematurely. Up to 20% of the ovules produced binucleated megaspores that failed to develop further, being their degeneration likely accompanied with a delayed programmed cell death. The anthers produced about 30% of aborted pollen grains, showing also a strong variation in their size. Together, the results show that Arabidopsis MOB1-like is required to regulate cell expansion and cell division, presumably by affecting the mitotic as well as the meiotic cell cycle.
