Abstract excerpt
We have identified multiple alleles for a single gene termed W14/15. This gene encodes closely related but not identical proteins W14 and W15 that accumulate in overwinter buds of Gentiana triflora (Takahashi et al. in Breed Sci 56:39-46, 2006; Hikage et al. in Mol Genet Genomics 278:95-104, 2007). In this study, structural analysis of the W14/15 gene was carried out for 21 different gentian lines/cultivars...
