摘　　要：Dear Editor, It is well established that local intercellular signaling net- works control cell identity and activity. Secreted peptides have been found to play a central role in this capacity in plants （Matsubayashi and Sakagami, 2006; Meng et al., 2010; Meng, 2012）. CLEL, which is the term for CLE （CLV3/ESR-related）-Iike peptides （also previously named as RGFs for root growth fac- tors by Matsuzaki et al. （2010））, regulate root growth pattern and lateral root development in Arabidopsis （Matsuzaki et al., 2010; Meng et al., 2012）. CLEL peptide precursors contain an N-terminal signal peptide （hydrophobic patch）, a diverse vari- able region,Dear Editor, It is well established that local intercellular signaling net- works control cell identity and activity.
