SlMYB21 and SlMYB24 cooperatively regulate petal coloration and movement in Solanum lycopersicum

In seed plants, reproductive success depends on the precise coordination of floral organ development. Here, we identify and characterize the Solanum lycopersicum transcription factor (TF) SlMYB24 as a member of the R2R3-MYB subgroup 19. While Slmyb24 mutants exhibited no obvious phenotypic alterations, the previously characterized Slmyb21 mutant displayed defects in floral development that were…
