This work describes the further characterization of the tumorous shoot development1 (tsd1) mutant of Arabidopsis thaliana, which develops disorganized tumorous-like shoot tissue instead of organized leaves and stems. Map-based cloning revealed that tsd1 is a novel strong allele of the KOR1 gene, encoding a membrane-bound endo-1,4-beta-D-glucanase involved in cellulose synthesis. To study developmental changes accompanying the aberrant growth of the tsd1 mutant, patterning in the meristems and the hormonal status were analysed by marker genes.
