Genome-wide identification of MIKC-type genes related to stamen and gynoecium development in Liriodendron

Abstract The organogenesis and development of reproductive organs, i.e., stamen and gynoecium, are important floral characteristics that are closely related to pollinators and reproductive fitness. As a genus from Magnoliaceae, Liriodendron has only two relict species: L. chinense and L. tulipifera....
