In vascular vessel, VND6 and VND7 control both secondary cell development and programmed cell death of vessels in both root and shoot tissues (1,33). The over-expression of VND6 and VND7 can induce ectopic differentiation of two different types of vessel elements: proto-xylem, and meta-xylem vessels. Reversely, the functional repression of VND6 and VND7 can inhibit vessel element formation. Additionally, the poplar VNDs can complement the Arabidopsis cell wall development defective mutant NST1NST3, suggesting that VNDs share the conserved functions with other secondary cell wall regulators [34]. Another excellent works finished by Ye lab also showed that the Arabidopsis VNDs can complemn

Reversely, the functional repression of VND6 and VND7 can inhibit vessel element formation. Additionally, the excellent works finished by Ye lab showed that the Arabidopsis VND6 and VND7 can complement the NST1NST3 double mutant phenotype, indicating that VNDs share the conserved functions with other secondary cell wall regulators [34]. Then they found that the poplar VNDs can complement the Arabidopsis cell wall development defective mutant NST1NST3, suggesting that the conserved function of VNDs among different species [35]. Recently, the downstream genes of VND6 and VND7 were identified by the excellent works done by Demura lab, Ye lab, and Fukuda lab [14,36,37]
