Functional analyses of two tomato APETALA3 genes demonstrate diversification in their roles in regulating floral development.

The Plant cell - 1 Aug 2006

de Martino Gemma, Pan Irvin, Emmanuel Eyal, Levy Avraham, Irish Vivian F

Abstract excerpt

The floral homeotic APETALA3 (AP3) gene in Arabidopsis thaliana encodes a MADS box transcription factor required for specifying petal and stamen identities. AP3 is a member of the euAP3 lineage, which arose by gene duplication coincident with radiation of the core eudicots. Although Arabidopsis lacks genes in the paralogous Tomato MADS box gene 6 (TM6) lineage, tomato (Solanum lycopersicum) possesses both euAP3...
