Abstract excerpt
MAIN CONCLUSION: Simultaneous knockdown or knockout of Torenia fournieri PLENA (TfPLE) and FALINELLI (TfFAR) genes with RNAi or genome-editing technologies generated a multi-petal phenotype in torenia. The MADS-box gene AGAMOUS (AG) is well known to play important roles in the development of stam...
