LEAFY, a Homeotic Gene That Regulates Inflorescence Development in Arabidopsis.
Variation in plant shoot structure may be described as occurring through changes within a basic unit, the metamer. Using this terminology, the apical meristem of Arabidopsis produces three metameric types sequentially: type 1, rosette; type 2, coflorescence-bearing with bract; and type 3, flower-bearing without bract. We describe a mutant of Arabidopsis, Leafy, homozygous for a recessive allele...
متن کاملInflorescence Architecture: The Transition from Branches to Flowers
The shapes of flowers and their organization into branching systems, called inflorescences, dictate much of plant diversity. Recent studies have identified key regulators in this diversity, revealing that the inflorescence architecture of Solanaceous species depends on sequential and temporal expression of the WUSCHEL-RELATED HOMEOBOX (WOX) gene EVERGREEN (EVG)/ COMPOUND INFLORESCENCE (S) and t...
متن کاملYield in almond is related more to the abundance of flowers than the relative number of flowers that set fruit
Almond tree yield is a function of the number of flowers on a tree and the percentage of flowers that set fruit. Almonds are borne on spurs (short proleptic shoots that can have both leaves and flowers). Almond tree spur dynamics research has documented that previous year spur leaf area is a predictive parameter for year-to-year spur survival, spur flowering and to a lesser extent spur fruiting...
متن کاملShoot and inflorescence branching.
A major aspect of postembryonic plant development is the formation of secondary axes of growth: vegetative branches, inflorescence branches, or flowers. The first step in side-shoot development is the establishment of lateral meristems in the axils of leaves. GRAS-, MYB-, and bHLH-type transcription factors act as key regulators of early steps in this process. The REVOLUTA subfamily of HD-ZIP t...
متن کاملIs LEAFY a useful marker gene for the flower–inflorescence boundary in the Euphorbia cyathium?
The flower-like reproductive structure of Euphorbia s.l. (Euphorbiaceae) is widely believed to have evolved from an inflorescence, and is therefore interpreted as a special type of pseudanthium, termed a cyathium. However, fuzzy morphological boundaries between the inflorescence, individual flowers, and organs have fuelled the suggestion that the cyathium does not merely superficially resemble ...
