Abstract: Simultaneous knockdown or knockout of Torenia fournieri PLENA (TfPLE) and FALINELLI (TfFAR) genes with RNAi or genome-editing technologies generated a multi-petal phenotype in torenia. The MADS-box gene AGAMOUS (AG) is well known to play important… read more here.

Abstract: MAIN CONCLUSION A novel Torenia phenotype having separate petals was obtained by the combination of NF-YA6-VP16 with a floral organ-specific promoter. Genetic engineering techniques helped in obtaining novel flower colors and shapes, in particular, by… read more here.
