The effect of polyploidy and hybridization on the evolution of floral colour in Nicotiana (Solanaceae). [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Speciation in angiosperms can be accompanied by changes in floral colour that may influence pollinator preference and reproductive isolation. This study investigates whether changes in floral colour can accompany polyploid and homoploid hybridization ...

In planta localisation patterns of MADS domain proteins during floral development in Arabidopsis thaliana [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Background: MADS domain transcription factors play important roles in various developmental processes in flowering plants. Members of this family play a prominent role in the transition to flowering and the specification of floral organ identity. Several
