Allen’s rule states that,

#XL - T Zoology
  1. among closely related endothermic (warm-blooded) vertebrates, those living in colder environments tend to have shorter appendages than those living in warmer environments.
  2. High temperatures are also limiting for many plants and animals
  3. Many organisms cope with heat stress by producing increased amounts of heat shock proteins (HSPs).
  4. Those species in colder, arctic environments have shorter ears than those in temperate or hot desert environments

Following figure regarding to regulatory network in the Arabidopsis shoot meristem stem-cell niche.

A. The transcription factor WUS is synthesized in the cell A and moves via plasmodesmata into cell B, where one of its functions is to induce expression of the CLV3.

B. The transcription factor CLV3 is synthesized in the cell A and moves via plasmodesmata into cell B, where one of its functions is to induce expression of the WUS.

C. Secreted CLV3 protein from cell B binds to the receptor protein kinase on the surface of cell A; there, it activates a signal that represses WUS transcription.

D. Secreted WUS protein from cell B binds to the receptor protein kinase on the surface of cell A; there, it activates a signal that represses CLV3 transcription.
