MADS-Box Gene Phylogeny and the Evolution of Plant Form : Characterisation of a Family of Regulators of Reproductive Development from the Conifer Norway Spruce, Picea abies

The evolutionary relationships between the angiosperm floral organs and the reproductive organs of other seed plants is not known. Flower organ development requires transcription factors encoded by the MADS-box genes. Since the evolution of novel morphology likely involve changes in developmental re...
