Abstract:Castanea mollissima is an important monoecious fruit crop with high economic and ecological value in China. However, its yield is restricted by an imbalanced ratio of male and female flowers for chestnut production. To address this issue, we examined the morphology of bisexual flower organs, measured the levels of endogenous hormones in the flowers, profiled gene expression related to plant hormone biosynthesis and signaling pathways and transcription factors, and investigated the effects of exogenous jasmonic… Show more
