Evolution and functional divergence of MADS-box genes in Pyrus [PDF]
AbstractMADS-box transcription factors widely regulate all aspects of plant growth including development and reproduction. Although the MADS-box gene family genes have been extensively characterized in many plants, they have not been studied in closely related species.

Characterization of MADS-Box Gene Family in Isatis indigotica and Functional Study of IiAP1 in Regulating Floral Transition and Formation. [PDF]
In flowering plants, MADS-box genes play regulatory roles in flower induction, floral initiation, and floral morphogenesis. Isatis indigotica (I. indigotica) is a traditional Chinese medicinal plant.

Cloning and Functional Analysis of the MADS-box CiMADS9 Gene from Carya illinoinensis
A MADS-box gene, CiMADS9, was cloned from the male flowers of Carya illinoinensis by rapid amplification of cDNA ends. The gene was 1 077 bp with a 768 bp open reading frame encoding 255 amino acids. Multiple sequence comparisons revealed that CiMADS9 is

A ubiquitously expressed MADS-box gene from Nicotiana tabacum
Experiments in Antirrinum majus, Arabidopsis thaliana and Petunia hybrida have demonstrated that putative transcription factors of the so-called MADS-box family play an important role in determining floral organ identity. Such regulatory genes are transiently expressed in small numbers of cells in the floral apex.

Characterization of Tobacco MADS-box Genes Involved in Floral Initiation [PDF]
MADS-box genes encode regulatory factors that are involved at various stages in plant development. These genes function not only during early floral meristem identity, but also when the fate of floral organ primordia is determined in a later step. Here, we screened a floral bud cDNA library to isolate a tobacco MADS-box gene, NtMADS4, using the rice ...

A characterization of the MADS‐box gene family in maize [PDF]
SummaryStudies on distantly related dicot plant species have identified homeotic genes that specify floral meristem identity and determine the fate of floral organ primordia. Most of these genes belong to a family characterized by the presence of a structural motif, the MADS‐box, which encodes a protein domain with DNA‐binding properties. As part of an

Transcription factors (TFs) form the major class of regulatory genes and play key roles in multiple plant stress responses. In most eukaryotic plants, transcription factor (TF) families (WRKY, MADS-box and MYB) activate unique cellular-level abiotic and ...
