AINTEGUMENTA, an APETALA2-like Gene of Arabidopsis with Pleiotropic Roles in Ovule Development and Floral Organ Growth

To understand better the role of genes in controlling ovule development, a
female-sterile mutant, aintegumenta (ant), was isolated from Arabidopsis.
In ovules of this mutant, integuments do not develop and megasporogenesis
is blocked at the tetrad stage. As a pleiotropic effect, narrower floral
organs arise in reduced numbers. More complete loss of floral organs occurs
when the ant mutant is combined with the floral homeotic mutant apetala2,
suggesting that the two genes share functions in initiating floral organ
development. The ANT gene was cloned by transposon tagging, and sequence
analysis showed that it is a member of the APETALA2-like family of
transcription factor genes. The expression pattern of ANT in floral and
vegetative tissues indicates that it is involved not only in the initiation
of integuments but also in the initiation and early growth of all primordia
except roots.
