摘要
植物MADS-box基因家族的不同成员在植物生长发育过程中起着非常重要的作用。拟南芥MADS-box基因FRUITFULL(FUL)在控制拟南芥开花时间、花分生组织分化、茎生叶形态以及心皮和果实的发育中起到重要作用。其他植物中,FUL的同源基因也在调控花发育、果实发育以及叶片发育等方面各自起到重要作用。综述了FUL基因及其同源基因的表达模式和功能,并就其在农作物及果树育种上的潜在应用价值进行了讨论。
In flowering plants,MADS-box genes control diverse developmental processes.FRUITFUL (FUL) is a MADS-box gene which functions early in controlling flowering time,meristem identity and cauline leaf morphology and later in carpel and fruit development in Arabidopsis thaliana.Its homeotic genes also play important roles in regulating plant growth and development in other plants.This article reviews the research advances in the expressional patterns and functions of FUL gene and its homeotic genes.And the potential value in the breeding of cro Pand orchards is discussed.
