Abstract:The understanding of flower initiation, development, and maturation in mangosteen is of paramount importance to shorten its long juvenile phase and to synchronize its flowering or fruiting time. In this study, we have identified 97 tentative unique genes with higher expression levels in young flower buds compared to young shoots by using suppressive subtraction hybridization and reverse northern analysis. Sequence analysis showed that 63.9% of these transcripts had non-significant matches to sequences in the n… Show more
