Molecular analysis of the anthocyanin2 gene of petunia and its role in the evolution of flower color.

The Plant cell - 1 Aug 1999

Abstract excerpt

The shape and color of flowers are important for plant reproduction because they attract pollinators such as insects and birds. Therefore, it is thought that alterations in these traits may result in the attraction of different pollinators, genetic isolation, and ultimately, (sympatric) speciation. Petunia integrifolia and P. axillaris bear flowers with different shapes and colors that appear to be visited by...
