Two androecious mutations reveal the crucial role of ethylene receptors in the initiation of female flower development in Cucurbita pepo.

The Plant journal : for cell and molecular biology - 1 Aug 2020

Abstract excerpt

Ethylene is the key regulator of sex determination in monoecious species of the family Cucurbitaceae. This hormone determines which individual floral meristems develop as female or male flowers and the female flowering transition. The sex determination genes discovered so far code for ethylene biosynthesis enzymes, but little is known about the importance of ethylene signaling components. In this paper we...
