Activating Compound | Comment | Organism | Structure |
---|---|---|---|
additional information | expression of BcMF2 reaches its maximum in the stage IV flower buds | Brassica rapa subsp. chinensis |
Application | Comment | Organism |
---|---|---|
additional information | BcMF2 (Brassica campestris male fertility 2) gene may encode a new polygalacturonase with an important role in pollen wall development, possibly via regulation of pectins dynamic metabolism | Brassica rapa subsp. chinensis |
Cloned (Comment) | Organism |
---|---|
BcMF2 cloned in the antisense orientation into the binary vector pBI121 and transferred into the Chinese cabbage | Brassica rapa subsp. chinensis |
Inhibitors | Comment | Organism | Structure |
---|---|---|---|
antisense RNA | inhibits BcMF2 expression, which results in abnormal pollen tube growth and consequent reduction in male fertility. BcMF2 inhibition leads to pollen deformities with abnormal intine development and in early degradation of the anther tapetum | Brassica rapa subsp. chinensis |
