Abstract excerpt
Flower color change, a common phenomenon that is important in pollination ecology, has intrigued scientists for decades. While previous flower color studies have mainly focused on color diversity among different plant species, our focus is on unraveling the mechanism of post-anthesis color change (PACC) and the molecular basis for its presence and absence, respectively, in two closely related species of Lotus,...
