Abstract excerpt
In Arabidopsis, loss of function of the epidermis-specific FDH gene coding for a putative beta-ketoacyl-CoA synthase results in ectopic organ fusions in mutants. Corresponding mutants are not available for Antirrhinum majus, however, organ fusions can be induced in both species by chloroacetamide inhibitors of beta-ketoacyl-CoA synthases using a chemical genetics approach. We isolated the ortholog of FDH from...
