The Secrets of Meristems Initiation: Axillary Meristem Initiation and Floral Meristem Initiation.

The branching phenotype is an extremely important agronomic trait of plants, especially for horticultural crops. It is not only an important yield character of fruit trees, but also an exquisite ornamental trait of landscape trees and flowers. The branching characteristics of plants are determined by the periodic initiation and later development of meristems, especially the axillary meristem (AM) in the vegetative stage and the floral meristem (FM) in the reproductive stage, which jointly determine the above-ground plant architecture.

Genes Were Involved in Regulating Axillary Bud Formation of × .

Branching is an important agronomic and economic trait in cut chrysanthemums. The axillary meristem (AM) formation of the axillary buds of cut chrysanthemums has a decisive role in its branching characteristics. However, little is known about the regulation mechanism of axillary meristem formation in chrysanthemums at the molecular level.

The -Targeted () Transcription Factor Regulates the Flowering Time by Binding to the Promoter of () in .

, a famous perennial ornamental plant and fruit tree in Asia, blooms in winter or early spring in the Yangtze River area. The flowering time directly determines its ornamental and economic value, so it is of great significance to study the molecular mechanism of flowering time. (), often regulated by , is an important flowering regulator, although its function is unknown in .

Genome-wide identification of three-amino-acid-loop-extension gene family and their expression profile under hormone and abiotic stress treatments during stem development of .

Transcription factors encoded by the three-amino-acid-loop-extension (TALE) gene family play a key role in regulating plant growth and development, and are involved in plant hormone regulatory pathways and responses to various environmental stresses. Researchers are currently studying genes in different species, but genes have not yet been studied. Therefore, based on the genome, we found a total of 23 gene family members, which were distributed on eight chromosomes.
