Floral Homeotic Factors: A Question of Specificity

open access: yesPlants, 2023
MADS-domain transcription factors are involved in the control of a multitude of processes in eukaryotes, and in plants, they play particularly important roles during reproductive development.

MULTI-FLORET SPIKELET 2, a MYB Transcription Factor, Determines Spikelet Meristem Fate and Floral Organ Identity in Rice1

open access: yesPlant Physiology, 2020
A transcript repressor is responsible for the normal development of spikelet and floral organs in rice and can be used in breeding design to improve yield.

Functional Specialization of Duplicated AGAMOUS Homologs in Regulating Floral Organ Development of Medicago truncatula

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2018
The C function gene AGAMOUS (AG) encodes for a MADS-box transcription factor required for floral organ identity and floral meristem (FM) determinacy in angiosperms. Unlike Arabidopsis, most legume plants possess two AG homologs arose by an ancient genome

Spatio-Temporal Dynamics of the Patterning of Arabidopsis Flower Meristem

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2021
The qualitative model presented in this work recovers the onset of the four fields that correspond to those of each floral organ whorl of Arabidopsis flower, suggesting a mechanism for the generation of the positional information required for the ...

Sepal Identity of the Pappus and Floral Organ Development in the Common Dandelion (Taraxacum officinale; Asteraceae)

open access: yesPlants, 2021
The dry one-seeded fruits (cypselae) of the Asteraceae are often crowned with a pappus, an appendage of hairs or scales that assists in dispersal. It is generally assumed, but little investigated, that the pappus represents the outer floral whorl where ...

Unusual Floral Organs Controls Meristem Identity and Organ Primordia Fate in Arabidopsis [PDF]

open access: yesThe Plant Cell, 1995
A novel gene that is involved in regulating flower initiation and development has been identified in Arabidopsis. This gene has been designated UNUSUAL FLORAL ORGANS (UFO), with five corresponding nuclear recessive alleles designated ufo[middot]1 to ufo[middot]5.

Phytoplasma-Induced Floral Abnormalities in Catharanthus roseus Are Associated with Phytoplasma Accumulation and Transcript Repression of Floral Organ Identity Genes

open access: yesMolecular Plant-Microbe Interactions, 2011
Floral symptoms caused by phytoplasma largely resemble floral reversion in other plants. Periwinkle leaf yellowing (PLY) phytoplasma and peanut witches'-broom (PnWB) phytoplasma caused different degrees of floral abnormalities on infected periwinkle ...

SlGT11 controls floral organ patterning and floral determinacy in tomato

open access: yesBMC Plant Biology, 2020
Background Flower development directly affects fruit production in tomato. Despite the framework mediated by ABC genes have been established in Arabidopsis, the spatiotemporal precision of floral development in tomato has not been well examined.

Unraveling the Developmental and Genetic Mechanisms Underpinning Floral Architecture in Proteaceae

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2019
Proteaceae are a basal eudicot family with a highly conserved floral groundplan but which displays considerable variation in other aspects of floral and inflorescence morphology.
