Fasciation in Strawberry Floral Organs and Possible Implications for Floral Transition
The Horticulture Journal, 2022 Fasciation in strawberry is characterized by an enlarged and flattened receptacle, clustering of flowers, and altered inflorescence architecture. However, the developmental process of fasciated flowers remains obscure. In this study, the fasciation incidence and developmental process in the primary fruit and inflorescence architecture were evaluated ...

The Arabidopsis JAGGED gene encodes a zinc finger protein that promotes leaf tissue development [PDF]
, 2004 Important goals in understanding leaf development are to identify genes involved in pattern specification, and also genes that translate this information into cell types and tissue structure. Loss-of-function mutations at the JAGGED (JAG) locus result in

Sterility Caused by Floral Organ Degeneration and Abiotic Stresses in Arabidopsis and Cereal Grains
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2016 Natural floral organ degeneration or abortion results in unisexual or fully sterile flowers, while abiotic stresses lead to sterility after initiation of floral reproductive organs.

The PIP peptide of INFLORESCENCE DEFICIENT IN ABSCISSION enhances Populus leaf and Elaeis guineensis fruit abscission [PDF]
, 2019 The programmed loss of a plant organ is called abscission, which is an important cell separation process that occurs with different organs throughout the life of a plant.

Self-organizing floral pigmentation patterns [PDF]
Science, 2020 Plant Science Petals of Mimulus flowers are decorated with anthocyanin spots in patterns that cue pollinators. Ding et al. show how, following the rules of a reaction-diffusion system, a self-activating transcription factor called NECTAR GUIDE ANTHOCYANIN (NEGAN) interacts with a mobile repressor to organize pigment patterns on flower petals. Among the

Floral organ size control [PDF]
Plant Signaling & Behavior, 2009 Growth of lateral organs is a complex mechanism that starts with formation of lateral primordia. Basal developmental programs like polarity, organ identity and environmental cues influence the final organ size achieved via coordinated cell division and expansion.

A short review on identification of ABCDE genes in monocot plants
Journal of Tropical Life Science, 2022 One of the most important divisions in the plant kingdom is the monocotyledon division of angiosperms. More than 60,000 monocot spp. have been identified, the majority of which are economically important, such as the Poaceae, Orchidaceae, Arecaceae ...

Exploring phenotypic floral integration in Iris pumila L.: A common-garden experiment [PDF]
Archives of Biological Sciences, 2013 The angiosperm flower is a complex integrated phenotype, but within this structure there are partly independent units or modules. The interconnections among floral organ traits are hypothesized to be mostly generated by pollinatormediated selection ...

Homeotic Genes and the ABCDE Model for Floral Organ Formation in Wheat
Plants, 2013 Floral organ formation has been the subject of intensive study for over 20 years, particularly in the model dicot species Arabidopsis thaliana. These studies have led to the establishment of a general model for the development of floral organs in higher ...
