Gene Details:

• Gene ID: PmuVar_Chr1_3490
• Gene Symbol: PmAP2L
• Gene Name: APETALA2-like
• Genome:
• Species: Prunus mume

Functional Descriptions:

• A 49-bp deletion of PmAP2L results in a double flower phenotype in Prunus mume.
• Phylogenetic analysis and microsynteny analysis suggested that PmAP2L was not a PETALOSA TOE-type gene, and it might be a new gene controlling the formation of double flower in P. mume.
• Overexpression of PmAP2L-D in tobacco led to a significant rise in the number of stamens and the conversion of stamens to petals.
• Overall, these findings indicate that the variation in PmAP2L is associated with differences in the regulation of genes responsible for floral organ identity, providing new insights into the double-flower trait and double-flower breeding in plants.
