Characterization of the Selaginella remotifolia MADS-box gene
Journal of Plant Research, 2002Recent progress in plant molecular genetics has revealed that floral organ development is regulated by several homeotic selector genes, most of which belong to the MADS-box gene family. Here we report on SrMADS1,a MIKC(c)-type MADS-box gene from Selaginella, a spikemoss belonging to the lycophytes.

Science, 2002
Understanding the molecular pathways that direct fruit ripening will enable development of interventions to preserve fruits during storage and shipping. In a Perspective, Causier and colleagues discuss new work ( Vrebalov et al .) that takes a step in this direction by revealing that a MADS-box transcription factor is crucial for ...

CaMADS1, a MADS box gene expressed in the carpel of hazelnut
Plant Molecular Biology, 1998Hazelnut (Corylus avellana L.) is a species of economic interest that shows a peculiar floral biology. Unlike most of the angiosperms, which produce ovules during floral development such that they are ready for pollen at anthesis, hazelnut ovary development is delayed and triggered by compatible pollination.

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 ...

Function and evolution of the plant MADS-box gene family
Nature Reviews Genetics, 2001The 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, 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 ...

Deep evolution of MADS-box genes in Archaeplastida
2023Abstract 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

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 ...

The role of MADS-box genes in flower morphogenesis
Acta Physiologiae Plantarum, 2001Intense 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 ...

Requirement of the MADS-box transcription factor MEF2C for vascular development
Development, 1998ABSTRACT The embryonic vasculature develops from endothelial cells that form a primitive vascular plexus which recruits smooth muscle cells to form the arterial and venous systems. The MADS-box transcription factor MEF2C is expressed in developing endothelial cells and smooth muscle cells (SMCs), as well as in surrounding mesenchyme ...
