Flower development.
Several homeotic genes controlling flower development have been characterized in Antirrhinum and Arabidopsis. Comparisons of their mutant phenotypes, expression patterns and genetic interactions have revealed that many of the basic mechanisms controlling flower development have been conserved in evolution, although important differences in the balance and interactions of genes also exist.
