Histone acetylation accompanied with promoter sequences displaying differential expression profiles of B-class MADS-box genes for phalaenopsis floral morphogenesis. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2014
Five B-class MADS-box genes, including four APETALA3 (AP3)-like PeMADS2∼5 and one PISTILLATA (PI)-like PeMADS6, specify the spectacular flower morphology in orchids. The PI-like PeMADS6 ubiquitously expresses in all floral organs. The four AP3-like genes,

Floral initiation in response to planting date reveals the key role of floral meristem differentiation prior to budding in canola (Brassica napus L.)

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2016
In Brassica napus, floral development is a decisive factor in silique formation, and it is influenced by many cultivation practices including planting date.

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 ...

A novel allele of FILAMENTOUS FLOWER reveals new insights on the link between inflorescence and floral meristem organization and flower morphogenesis

BMC Plant Biology, 2010
Background The Arabidopsis FILAMENTOUS FLOWER (FIL) gene encodes a YABBY (YAB) family putative transcription factor that has been implicated in specifying abaxial cell identities and thus regulating organ polarity of lateral organs. In contrast to double

Comparative transcriptomic analysis provides insight into carpel petaloidy in lotus (Nelumbo nucifera) [PDF]

PeerJ, 2021
Lotus (Nelumbo nucifera) is a highly recognized flower with high ornamental value. Flower color and flower morphology are two main factors for flower lotus breeding. Petaloidy is a universal phenomenon in lotus flowers. However, the genetic regulation of

Effect of salicylic acid on freezing injury in peach floral organs and the expressions of CBF genes

Biologia Plantarum, 2017
We used flowering branches at the budding stage of two peach cultivars Xiahui 6 and Xiacui with different cold resistance to explore the effect of exogenous salicylic acid (SA) on the freezing injury of peach floral organs and the molecular mechanism ...

Impact of Within-Tree Organ Distances on Floral Induction and Fruit Growth in Apple Tree: Implication of Carbohydrate and Gibberellin Organ Contents

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2019
In plants, organs are inter-dependent for growth and development. Here, we aimed to investigate the distance at which interaction between organs operates and the relative contribution of within-tree variation in carbohydrate and hormonal contents on ...

AGAMOUS mediates timing of guard cell formation during gynoecium development.

PLoS Genetics, 2023
In Arabidopsis thaliana, stomata are composed of two guard cells that control the aperture of a central pore to facilitate gas exchange between the plant and its environment, which is particularly important during photosynthesis.

Geometric morphometrics of functionally distinct floral organs in Iris pumila: Analyzing patterns of symmetric and asymmetric shape variations [PDF]

Archives of Biological Sciences, 2017
The Iris flower is a complex morphological structure composed of two trimerous whorls of functionally distinct petaloid organs (the falls and the standards), one whorl of the stamens and one tricarpellary gynoecium.

Allometry Between Vegetative and Reproductive Traits in Orchids

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2021
In flowering plants, inflorescence characteristics influence both seed set and pollen contribution, while inflorescence and peduncle size can be correlated with biomass allocation to reproductive organs.
