R. Boivin et al., STAGE-SPECIFIC TRANSCRIPTION OF THE HOMEOBOX GENE BNHD1 IN YOUNG TISSUES AND FLOWERS OF BRASSICA-NAPUS, Biochimica et biophysica acta, N. Gene structure and expression, 1219(1), 1994, pp. 201-204
The Bnhd1 cDNA, only distantly related to published homeobox gene sequ
ences, was isolated from Brassica napus by the polymerase chain reacti
on. The Bnhd1 transcript was detected in all organs of young seedlings
, but only in the youngest leaves and flowers of mature plants. A 4- a
nd 7-fold increase in transcription levels was observed after wounding
of young roots and leaves, respectively.
