摘要: Anthurium andraeanum is a high-grade potted flower that enjoys global popularity. Its floral organs have been substantially modified, and its ornamental value is based on its petaloid bracts. MADS-box gene products are important transcription factors that control plant development. In particular, the APETALA1 (AP1)/FRUITFULL (FUL) family of MADS-box genes plays a key role in flowering transitions and out-whorl floral organ identity specification. In this report, one FUL-like gene was cloned from Anthurium andraeanum and named AaFUL1 after bioinformatics identification. Subsequent subcellular localization experiments confirmed that the AaFUL1 protein was located in the nucleus, and data obtained from an expression analysis indicated that the relative expression level of AaFUL1 was the highest in bracts and inflorescences, while its expression was relatively low in stems and roots. Next, an AaFUL1 overexpression vector was constructed and ectopically expressed in tobacco. The transformants did not show any early flowering phenotype, but the average internode length of the inflorescence branch was significantly higher than that observed in the control, and its petal color had sub-stantially faded. The morphology of the petal and pistil was clearly changed, the fruit was deformed, and the seed was largely aborted. These data indicate that even though the sequence of AaFUL1 is relatively conserved, its function differs from that of other orthologs, and the FUL subfamily of MADS-box transcription factors may have taken on new functions during the evolution processes. The results of this experiment enrich our knowledge of FUL transcription factors in monocotyledon plants.
