Protein function
Encodes a MADS-box transcription factor.
Phenotype
Single mutant: ag single mutant does not display any flower defects but produces more axillary inflorescences.
[Kempin et al., 1995] Multiple mutant: ap1 ;
cal ;
ful multiple mutant does not flower.
[Ferrü¾Œ–”¼ndiz et al., 2000] Multiple mutant: cal mutation dramatically enhance the flower developmental defects of
ap1 single mutants: each flower meristem is converted into an infloresence meristem.
[Kempin et al., 1995] Function:Probable transcription factor that promotes early floral meristem identity in synergy with APETALA1, FRUITFULL and LEAFY. Is required subsequently for the transition of an inflorescence meristem into a floral meristem. Seems to be partially redundant to the function of APETALA1. Positively regulates the APETALA1 and LEAFY expression.
