SlMED2 regulates locule number through the SlTPL−SlKNU floral meristem module

The Mediator complex subunit SlMED2 controls carpel number in tomato through promoter-proximal and long-range genomic interactions with the SlTPL-SlKNU floral meristem module, which represses SlWUS and SlCLV3, resulting in termination of stem cell activity.
