Floral homeotic functions in angiosperms and gymnosperms and MADS-box gene domains in different species. a Diagram illustrating the classic ABCDE floral development model in the angiosperm Arabidopsis thaliana. Different combinations of A, B, C, D and E classes lead to different organ identity [4]. b B(C) model was proposed to control the development of male and female cones in gymnosperms, (C) indicates C + D [4,5,6]. c Two type of MADS-box proteins are shown: type I (SRF-like) and type II (MEF2-like). “The scale indicates the number of amino acids of the protein. The “?” indicates that the C-terminal is not well defined yet” [7] (redrawn from Fig. 1(https://www.pnas.org/content/97/10/5328), Copyright (2000) National Academy of Sciences, U.S.A.)
