encodes a protein containing Dof zinc finger motifs. expression is limited to vascular system of the mother plant. recessive mutation is inherited as maternal-effect and expression is not detected in the embryo. mutants are defective in seed germination. mutants are more dependent on light and cold treatment and less sensitive to gibberellin during seed germination.
