Fig. 7From: Genome-wide identification of MADS-box gene family in sacred lotus (Nelumbo nucifera) identifies a SEPALLATA homolog gene involved in floral developmentExpression analysis of NnSEP3 gene in the flower bud of different lotus strains. a Flower of the longer flowering lotus in late autumn. The flowering time expand from June to November. b Flowers of different lotus species. c Expression levels of NnSEP3 gene among different strains. I, longer flowering lotus; II, ordinary lotus; III, strain with stamen petaloid; IV, strain with ovary petaloid; V, all-double-petalled-flower strain; VI, strain with multi- all-double-petalled-flowers in one flower budBack to article page
