Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Petal specific InMYB1 promoter from morning glory functions recognizing petal identity at cell level, but not whole2 position in shoot apical meristem. In the upstream region of InMYB1, the 332-121 b upstream region contains cis-element, which defines petal identity. We produced the vector harboring 3 repeats of the 332-121 b upstream region of InMYB1 for molecular breeding of floricultural crops. GPP gene from rice can induce greening, morphological change and life extension in the petals of Arabidopsis, morning glory and petunia. These changes caused by addition of leaf identity to petals.
