EXTRAPETALS allows cymose branching in petunia by transiently repressing floral identity in sympodial meristems

Cymes and racemes form two broad types of inflorescence architecture. Racemes are monopodial and bear axillary flowers, but in cymes the main stem ends in an apical flower and is continued sympodially by a series of lateral shoots. In these shoots floral identity is delayed by a previously unknown mechanism. We show that the MADS-box transcription factor EXTRAPETALS (EXP) transiently represses ...

Genetics of Floral Development in Petunia

In the last two decades the genetic and molecular research on floral development has advanced tremendously. Initially the research focused mostly on the two species of which the homeotic floral development mutants formed the basis for the ABC‐model: Arabidopsis and Antirrhinum. In recent years the importance of studying a wider range of species, especially in an ‘‘evo‐devo’’ context, has become...

Meristem identity and phyllotaxis in inflorescence development

Inflorescence morphology is incredibly diverse. This diversity of form has been a fruitful source of inquiry for plant morphologists for more than a century. Work in the grasses (Poaceae), the tomato family (Solanaceae), and Arabidopsis thaliana (Brassicaceae) has led to a richer understanding of the molecular genetics underlying this diversity. The character of individual meristems, a combinat...

Environmental control of branching in petunia.

Plants alter their development in response to changes in their environment. This responsiveness has proven to be a successful evolutionary trait. Here, we tested the hypothesis that two key environmental factors, light and nutrition, are integrated within the axillary bud to promote or suppress the growth of the bud into a branch. Using petunia (Petunia hybrida) as a model for vegetative branch...

Inflorescence development in petunia: through the maze of botanical terminology.

Flowering plants have developed many ways to arrange their flowers. A flower-bearing branch or system of branches is called an inflorescence. The number of flowers that an inflorescence contains ranges from a single flower to endless flower-clusters. Over the past centuries, botanists have classified inflorescences based on their morphology, which has led to an unfortunate maze of complex botan...
