Abstract :
APETALA2 (AP2) gene encodes a floral homeotic gene, is involved in the specification of floral organ identity, establishment of floral meristem identity, development of the ovule and seed coat, and controlling seed mass. Here we reported that an amino acid mutation of AP2 effect on the petal identify, also cause leaf shape change and early anthesis.
