  bibo_abstract:
  - Very long-chain fatty acids (VLCFAs), being constituents of different types of
    lipids, are critical factors in plant development, presumably due to their impact
    on the endomembrane system. The VLCFAs are synthesized in the endoplasmic reticulum
    by a heterotetrameric enzymatic complex including β-ketoacyl CoA reductase 1 (KCR1),
    whose mutant is lethal. Here, we describe the ectopic shoot meristems (esm) mutant,
    a viable kcr1 allele presumably affecting surface properties of the KCR1 protein.
    This kcr1-2 mutant shows reduced fatty acyl elongation that impacts VLCFAs. The
    kcr1-2 plants show severe defects during different stages of development, which
    all correlate with defects in polar localization and subcellular trafficking of
    PIN auxin transporters and resulting asymmetric auxin distribution. Detailed analysis
    of KCR1 expression and patterning defects in kcr1-2 suggests that KCR1 plays a
    role in delineating boundaries around meristematic and specialized differentiating
    tissues, including root and shoot meristems, initiating lateral roots, lateral
    root primordia, and trichomes. In these contexts, KCR1-produced VLCFAs may act
    in a non-cell-autonomous manner. Viable kcr1-2 represents a useful tool to study
    VLCFA roles in plant development and highlights VLCFAs as critical developmental
    factors at the interface of cell polarity and tissue development.@eng
