SUMMARY Legumes have unique features, such as compound inflorescences and a complex floral ontogeny. Thus, the study of regulatory genes in these species during inflorescence development is essential to understand their role evolutionary origin developmental novelties. The SUPERMAN ( SUP ) gene encodes C2H2 zinc‐finger transcriptional repressor that regulates organ number third fourth whorls Arabidopsis thaliana . In this work, we present functional characterization Medicago truncatula MtSUP...
Abstract The Arabidopsis SUPERMAN ( SUP ) gene and its orthologs in eudicots are crucial regulating the number of reproductive floral organs. In Medicago truncatula , addition to this function, a novel role controlling meristem activity during compound inflorescence development was assigned ‐ortholog MtSUP ). These findings led us investigate whether genes legume‐specific or could be extended other eudicots. To assess that, we used Solanum lycopersicum as model system with cymose complex...
