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.

Which of the following combination is correct?
