Duplication and adaptive evolution of the chalcone synthase genes of Dendranthema (Asteraceae).

Molecular biology and evolution - 1 Oct 2002

Yang Ji, Huang Jinxia, Gu Hongya, Zhong Yang, Yang Ziheng

Abstract excerpt

Chalcone synthase (CHS) is a key enzyme in the biosynthesis of flavonoids, which are important for the pigmentation of flowers and act as attractants to the pollinators. Genes encoding CHS constitute a multigene family in which the copy number varies among plant species and functional divergence appears to have occurred repeatedly. Plants of the Dendranthema genus have white, yellow, and pink flowers, exhibiting...
