MADS‐Box Genes Controlling Flower Development in Rice
Plant Biology, 2003Abstract:The separation between monocot and dicot plants occurred about 120 ‐ 180 million years ago and since then major morphological changes have led to the striking differences that can be observed today. To understand whether, despite these differences, the processes controlling flower development are fundamentally comparable in dicot and monocot ...

Analysis of the petunia MADS-box transcription factor family
Molecular Genetics and Genomics, 2003Transcription factors are key regulators of plant development. One of the major groups of transcription factors is the MADS-box family, of which at least 80 members are encoded in the Arabidopsis genome. In this study, 23 members of the petunia MADS-box transcription factor family were investigated by Northern hybridisation, phylogenetic and yeast two ...

A short history of MADS-box genes in plants
Plant Molecular Biology, 2000Evolutionary developmental genetics (evodevotics) is a novel scientific endeavor which assumes that changes in developmental control genes are a major aspect of evolutionary changes in morphology. Understanding the phylogeny of developmental control genes may thus help us to understand the evolution of plant and animal form.

SHATTERPROOF MADS-box genes control seed dispersal in Arabidopsis
Nature, 2000The fruit, which mediates the maturation and dispersal of seeds, is a complex structure unique to flowering plants. Seed dispersal in plants such as Arabidopsis occurs by a process called fruit dehiscence, or pod shatter. Few studies have focused on identifying genes that regulate this process, in spite of the agronomic value of controlling seed ...

Deep evolution of MADS-box genes in Archaeplastida
2023AbstractMADS-box genes represent a paneukaryotic gene family encoding transcription factors. Given its importance for essential functions in plants, animals and fungi, such as development of organ identity and mating type determination, the phylogeny of MADS-box genes is of great biological interest. It has been well established that a gene duplication

Plant Physiology
Abstract Ovule fertilization initiates fruit set, the transition from a quiescent ovary to a growing ovary (fruit), yet how ovary growth is arrested before fertilization remains poorly understood. Previously, we have shown that the ovaries of the tomato (Solanum lycopersicum) AGAMOUS-like6 (SlAGL6) loss-of-function mutant (slagl6CR-sg1 ...

Putative MADS-Box Retropseudogenes in Rye (Secale L.)
Russian Journal of Plant Physiology, 2002The fragments of MADS-box genes belonging to the agamous and agamous-like structural classes were isolated by direct amplification of genomic DNA from annual rye (Secale cereale L.) and perennial rye (Secale montanum Guss.). The characterized fragments (deposited in the Genbank as the accession nos. AF332885–AF332887 and AF346894) comprise the complete

New MADS box domains in Asparagus officinalis L.
Sexual Plant Reproduction, 1995New MADS box domains have been cloned from Asparagus officinalis L. using PCR technology. Several clones share high homology with the Arabidopsis agamous gene while other clones appear to represent novel MADS box domains. These results show that extended PCR primers are useful for selectively amplifying conserved DNA binding domains across widely ...

Dormancy-Associated MADS-BOX Genes: A Review
2015Dormancy-associated MADS-BOX (DAM) genes encode transcription factors suspected of regulating bud dormancy in numerous perennials. This chapter discusses the functional genetics and regulation of these genes. Further, this chapter summarizes the supporting evidence for these transcription factors playing a central role in seasonal bud dormancy ...

MADS-BOX GENES AND USES THEREOF
2000Described are nucleic acid molecules encoding novel MADS-box proteins which are expressed in the upper florets of spikelets of grass inflorescences as well as regulatory sequences which naturally regulate the expression of such nucleic acid molecules.
