Abstract

To compare the sequence, expression pattern and function of genes that control presence/absence of ray florets in the capitulum of Senecio vulgaris. To determine linkage relationships between these genes. To define further genes controlling the pattern of ray and disc floret development by generating and analysing capitulum mutants of Senecio flavus.
