The function of the plant hormone jasmonic acid (JA) in development tomato (Solanum lycopersicum) flowers was analyzed with a mutant defective JA perception (jasmonate-insensitive1-1, jai1-1). In contrast Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana) JA-insensitive plants, which are male sterile, jai1-1 is female major defects development. To identify putative JA-dependent regulatory components, we performed transcriptomics on ovules from at three developmental stages wild type and mutants. One...
Jasmonates are well known plant signaling components required for stress responses and development. A prominent feature of jasmonate biosynthesis or mutants is the loss fertility. In contrast to male sterile phenotype Arabidopsis mutants, tomato mutant jai1-1 exhibits female sterility with additional severe effects on stamen pollen Its senescence suggests a function jasmonates in regulation processes be mediated by ethylene. To test hypothesis that ethylene involved development regulated...
