Abstract
Description
technical field
[0001] The invention relates to the application of a soybean MADS-box gene GmMADS1, which belongs to the field of plant genetic engineering. Background technique
[0002] People have isolated a large number of MADS-box genes from the entire huge group of plants at different evolutionary positions. MADS-box genes play an important role in flower development, whether it is the transition from vegetative growth to reproductive growth; Also in the initial stage of reproductive growth, floral meristem-determining genes initiate the development of floral meristem; and in the later stage of reproductive growth, they play an important role in the development of floral organ primordia.
[0003] Soybean is an important grain and oil crop, and the research on its flower development is relatively lagging behind. Soybeans have many flowers, small flower vessels, and heavy pollen. When the flowers are open, the wing petals and keel petals tightly cover the stamens and sti...
