Abstract:Leaves are the main consumed organ in leafy non-heading Chinese cabbage (Brassica rapa L. ssp. chinensis Makino), and the shape of the leaves is an important economic trait. However, the molecular regulatory mechanism underlying lobed-leaf trait in non-heading Chinese cabbage remains unclear. Here, we identi ed a stable incompletely dominant major locus qLLA10 for lobed leaves formation in nonheading Chinese cabbage. Based on map-based cloning strategies, BrLMI1, a LATE MERISTEM IDENTITY1 (LMI1)-like gene, was… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
