Function and evolution of the plant MADS-box gene family

Nature Reviews Genetics, 2001
The function of MADS-box genes in flower and fruit development has been uncovered at a rapid pace over the past decade. Evolutionary biologists can now analyse the expression pattern of MADS-box genes during the development of different plant species, and study the homology of body parts and the evolution of body plans.

MADS‐Box Genes Controlling Flower Development in Rice

Plant Biology, 2003
Abstract: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 ...

MADS-box gene evolution—structure and transcription patterns

Molecular Phylogenetics and Evolution, 2002
This study presents a phylogenetic analysis of 198 MADS-box genes based on 420 parsimony-informative characters. The analysis includes only MIKC genes; therefore several genes from gymnosperms and pteridophytes are excluded. The strict consensus tree identifies all major monophyletic groups known from earlier analyses, and all major monophyletic groups

Analysis of the petunia MADS-box transcription factor family

Molecular Genetics and Genomics, 2003
Transcription 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 ...

Deep evolution of MADS-box genes in Archaeplastida

2023
Abstract MADS-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

The role of MADS-box genes in flower morphogenesis

Acta Physiologiae Plantarum, 2001
Intense investigations on genes of flower meristem identity as well as genes responsible for whorl identity led to enormous progress in the knowledge of processes underlaying flower morphogenesis. After cloning genes involved in this process many of them were found to belong to a large, highly conserved family, encoding transcriptional factors ...

MADS-box out of the black box.

Molecular ecology, 2011
The compelling elegance of using genome-wide scans to detect the signature of selection is difficult to resist, but is countered by the low demonstrated efficacy of pinpointing the actual genes and traits that are the targets of selection in nonmodel species.

Dormancy-Associated MADS-BOX Genes: A Review

2015
Dormancy-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 ...
