Abstract
Plant organ size is an important agronomic trait that makes a significant contribution to plant yield. Despite its central importance, the genetic and molecular mechanisms underlying organ size control remain to be fully clarified. Here, we report that the trithorax group protein ULTRAPETALA1 (ULT1) interacts with the TEOSINTE BRANCHED1/CYCLOIDEA/PCF14/15 (TCP14/15) transcription factors by antagonizing the LIN-11, ISL-1, and MEC-3 (LIM) peptidase DA1, thereby regulating organ size in Arabidopsis. Loss of ULT1 function significantly increases rosette leaf, petal, silique, and seed size, whereas overexpression of ULT1 results in reduced organ size. ULT1 associates with TCP14 and TCP15 to co-regulate cell size by affecting cellular endoreduplication. Transcriptome analysis revealed that ULT1 and TCP14/15 regulate common target genes involved in endoreduplication and leaf development. ULT1 can be recruited by TCP14/15 to promote lysine 4 of histone H3 trimethylation at target genes, activating their expression to determine final cell size. Furthermore, we found that ULT1 influences the interaction of DA1 and TCP14/15 and antagonizes the effect of DA1 on TCP14/15 degradation. Collectively, our findings reveal a novel epigenetic mechanism underlying the regulation of organ size in Arabidopsis.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
