MADS-box gene AaSEP4 promotes artemisinin biosynthesis in Artemisia annua. [PDF]
Front Plant Sci, 2022 The plant Artemisia annua is well known for its production of artemisinin, a sesquiterpene lactone that is an effective antimalarial compound. Although remarkable progress has been made toward understanding artemisinin biosynthesis, the effect of MADS-box family transcription factors on artemisinin biosynthesis is still poorly understood. In this study,

The Orchid MADS-Box Genes Controlling Floral Morphogenesis [PDF]
TSW Development & Embryology, 2006 Orchids are known for both their floral diversity and ecological strategies. The versatility and specialization in orchid floral morphology, structure, and physiological properties have fascinated botanists for centuries. In floral studies, MADS-box genes contributing to the now famous ABCDE model of floral organ identity control have dominated ...

Eucalypt MADS-Box Genes Expressed in Developing Flowers [PDF]
Plant Physiology, 1998 Abstract Three MADS-box genes were identified from a cDNA library derived from young flowers of Eucalyptus grandis W. Hill ex Maiden. The threeegm genes are single-copy genes and are expressed almost exclusively in flowers. The egm1 and egm3genes shared strongest homology with other plant MADS-box genes, which mediate between the floral ...

MADS-box Genes and Floral Development: the Dark Side [PDF]
Journal of Experimental Botany, 2012 The origin of the flower during evolution has been a crucial step in further facilitating plants to colonize a wide range of different niches on our planet. The >250 000 species of flowering plants existing today display an astonishing diversity in floral architecture.

Characterization of MADS-box genes in charophycean green algae and its implication for the evolution of MADS-box genes [PDF]
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2005 The MADS-box genes of land plants are extensively diverged to form a superfamily and are important in various aspects of development including the specification of floral organs as homeotic selector genes. The closest relatives of land plants are the freshwater green algae charophyceans. To study the origin and evolution of land plant MADS-

Function and Diversification of MADS-Box Genes in Rice [PDF]
TSW Development & Embryology, 2006 MADS-box genes play critical roles in a number of developmental processes in flowering plants, such as specification of floral organ identity, control of flowering time, and regulation of fruit development. Because of their crucial functions in flower development, diversification of the MADS-box gene family has been suggested to be a major factor ...

MADS box genes control vernalization-induced flowering in cereals [PDF]
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2003 By comparing expression levels of MADS box transcription factor genes between near-isogenic winter and spring lines of bread wheat, Triticum aestivum , we have identified WAP1 as the probable candidate for the Vrn-1 gene, the major locus controlling the vernalization ...

Diverse roles for MADS box genes in Arabidopsis development. [PDF]
The Plant Cell, 1995 Members of the MADS box gene family play important roles in flower development from the early step of determining the identity of floral meristems to specifying the identity of floral organ primordia later in flower development. We describe here the isolation and characterization of six additional members of this family, increasing the number of ...

Characterization of MADS Box Genes from Hot Pepper
Molecules and Cells, 2001 The cDNA clone, CanMADS1, was isolated from young flower buds of the hot pepper (Capsicum annuum L.) by screening a cDNA library using the OsMADS1 rice MADS-box gene as a probe. We used a yeast two-hybrid screening method to investigate interaction partners of the protein product of CanMADS1.

The Petunia MADS Box Gene FBP11 Determines Ovule Identity [PDF]
The Plant Cell, 1995 In contrast to the wealth of information relating to genes regulating floral meristem and floral organ identity, only limited data are available concerning genes that are involved in determining and regulating the identity and development of an ovule. We have recently isolated the floral binding protein 11 (FBP11) MADS box gene from petunia and found ...
