2007 m. Nr. 4 Comparative analysis of genes affecting lodicules development in grasses
Lodicules are grass-specific flower organs determined by B-class flower genes. Comparative analysis of the interaction of barley mutant tweaky spike with B-class barley mutant lax-a alleles and other known genes and mutants that affect lodicule development in barley, rice and maize allow to conclude that also other genes, not only of B and C classes, directly and indirectly determine lodicule expression. The barley mutant tweaky spike is among such genes and does not belong to B-class genes.
