Journal ArticleDOI
Distinct Roles of CONSTANS Target Genes in Reproductive Development of Arabidopsis
Alon Samach,Hitoshi Onouchi,Scott E. Gold,Gary S. Ditta,Zsuzsanna Schwarz-Sommer,Martin F. Yanofsky,George Coupland +6 more
TL;DR: Four early target genes of CO were identified using a steroid-inducible version of the protein to define common components of distinct flowering-time pathways.
Journal ArticleDOI
Genetic Control of Flower Development by Homeotic Genes in Antirrhinum majus
TL;DR: The isolation and molecular analysis of several homeotic genes in Antirrhinum majus provide insights into the underlying molecular regulatory mechanisms of flower development.
Journal ArticleDOI
Deficiens, a homeotic gene involved in the control of flower morphogenesis in Antirrhinum majus: the protein shows homology to transcription factors.
Hans Sommer,J.P. Beltrán,Peter Huijser,Heike Pape,Wolf-Ekkehard Lönnig,Heinz Saedler,Zsuzsanna Schwarz-Sommer +6 more
TL;DR: A cDNA derived from the wild type defA+ gene has been cloned by differential screening of a subtracted ‘flower specific’ cDNA library by utilizing the somatic and germinal instability of defA‐1 mutants.
Journal ArticleDOI
GLOBOSA: a homeotic gene which interacts with DEFICIENS in the control of Antirrhinum floral organogenesis.
W. Trobner,Lucía Ramírez,Patrick Motte,Isabelle Hue,Peter Huijser,Wolf-Ekkehard Lönnig,Heinz Saedler,Hans Sommer,Zsuzsanna Schwarz-Sommer +8 more
TL;DR: A model is presented which proposes both combinatorial and cross‐regulatory interactions between the DEFA and GLO genes during petal and stamen organogenesis in the second and third whorls of the flower.
Journal ArticleDOI
Characterization of the Antirrhinum floral homeotic MADS-box gene deficiens: evidence for DNA binding and autoregulation of its persistent expression throughout flower development.
Zsuzsanna Schwarz-Sommer,Isabelle Hue,Peter Huijser,Peter J. Flor,Rolf Hansen,F Tetens,Wolf-Ekkehard Lönnig,Heinz Saedler,Hans Sommer +8 more
TL;DR: In vitro DNA binding studies show that DEF A binds to specific DNA motifs as a heterodimer, together with the protein product of the floral homeotic globosa gene, thus demonstrating that the protein encoded by deficiens is a DNA binding protein.
