This project investigates the development of flowering plant structures, specifically the carpel, using rice as a model. It aims to understand the transcription factors involved in carpel formation and their evolutionary conservation across different plant species.
Flowering plants (angiosperms) protect their female reproductive structure, the ovule, within a carpel.
After the embryo sac in fertilized by the pollen tube, the ovule gradually turns into a seed, and the carpel becomes a fruit.
The carpel is thus an evolutionary conserved structure, but showing an outstanding variability in shapes and function.
Several transcription factors directing the main aspects of carpel formation and morphogenesis, are quite well characterized in the model eudicot plant…
