| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Linkage analysis using a linkage map revealed the double flower locus in carnation, and identified that CES0212 marker was the tightly linked to the locus. Genome sequence analysis of the APETALA2 gene neighboring to CES0212 marker in double and single flower cultivars revealed that the existence of 1019 bp insertion in the double flower cultivar. These results suggested that the mutation of APETALA2 gene is involved in the occurrence of double flower in carnation.
