AGAMOUS mediates timing of guard cell formation during gynoecium development.
PLoS Genetics, 2023 In Arabidopsis thaliana, stomata are composed of two guard cells that control the aperture of a central pore to facilitate gas exchange between the plant and its environment, which is particularly important during photosynthesis.

A photo-responsive F-box protein FOF2 regulates floral initiation by promoting FLC expression in Arabidopsis. [PDF]
, 2017 Floral initiation is regulated by various genetic pathways in response to light, temperature, hormones and developmental status; however, the molecular mechanisms underlying the interactions between different genetic pathways are not fully understood ...

The MADS-Domain Protein AGAMOUS-Like 15 Accumulates in Embryonic Tissues with Diverse Origins1 [PDF]
Plant Physiology, 1999 Abstract AGL15 (AGAMOUS-like 15), a member of the MADS-domain family of regulatory factors, accumulates preferentially in the organs and tissues derived from double fertilization in flowering plants (i.e. the embryo, suspensor, and endosperm). The developmental role of AGL15 is still undefined.

The MADS-domain protein MPF1 of Physalis floridana controls plant architecture, seed development and flowering time [PDF]
Planta, 2009 Floral and vegetative development of plants is dependent on the combinatorial action of MADS-domain transcription factors. Members of the STMADS11 subclade, such as MPF1 of Physalis, are abundantly expressed in leaves as well as in floral organs, but their function is not yet clear. Our studies with transgenic Arabidopsis that over-express MPF1 suggest

Developmental robustness by obligate interaction of class B floral homeotic genes and proteins. [PDF]
PLoS Computational Biology, 2009 DEF-like and GLO-like class B floral homeotic genes encode closely related MADS-domain transcription factors that act as developmental switches involved in specifying the identity of petals and stamens during flower development.

G-protein βγ subunits determine grain size through interaction with MADS-domain transcription factors in rice [PDF]
Nature Communications, 2018 Abstract The simultaneous improvement of grain quality and yield of cereal crops is a major challenge for modern agriculture. Here we show that a rice grain yield quantitative trait locus qLGY3 encodes a MADS-domain transcription factor OsMADS1, which acts as a key ...

Food for thought: how nutrients regulate root system architecture [PDF]
, 2017 The spatial arrangement of the plant root system (root system architecture, RSA) is very sensitive to edaphic and endogenous signals that report on the nutrient status of soil and plant.
