Sex determination in the monoecious species cucumber is confined to specific floral whorls.

The Plant cell - 1 Mar 2001

Abstract excerpt

In unisexual flowers, sex is determined by the selective repression of growth or the abortion of either male or female reproductive organs. The mechanism by which this process is controlled in plants is still poorly understood. Because it is known that the identity of reproductive organs in plants is controlled by homeotic genes belonging to the MADS box gene family, we analyzed floral homeotic mutants from...
