Abstract excerpt
The female reproductive organ is essential for crop yield, but the mechanism underlying its development remains unclear in Brassica napus. Here, we identified four BnaCMA (Carpel Morphogenesis Abnormality) homologs, which play key roles in regulating gynoecium and silique development in B. napus. The BnaCMA triple mutants exhibited severe and penetrant abnormalities in the female reproductive organ, characterized...
