Abstract excerpt
Homeotic mutations in flowers lead to the development of floral organs in abnormal locations. In most laboratory-induced examples of this type of mutation, two adjacent whorls of organs are affected, resulting in two whorls of abnormal organ formation. However, the crinkled petal mutant of Clarkia tembloriensis is interesting because it is a naturally occurring mutation and it affects only the second whorl of...
