General Information

EC Number General Information Comment Organism
2.1.1.273 evolution differences in scent emission between Antirrhinum majus and Antirrhinum linkianum may be traced back to single genes involved in discrete biosynthetic reactions such as benzoic acid methylation. Thus, natural variation of this complex trait may be the result of combinations of wild-type, and loss of function alleles in different genes involved in discrete VOCs biosynthesis. The presence of active transposable elements in the genus may account for rapid evolution and instability, raising the possibility of adaptation to local pollinators. Genetic analysis of scent emission spanning three generations following a cross of Antirrhinum majus and Antirrhinum linkianum. Both species differ in the production of four volatile organic compounds (VOCS): methyl benzoate, beta-ocimene, methylcinnamate, and acetophenone. These compounds display mendelian segregations typical for a single gene or two loci in the F2 population. Loss of function allele of benzoic acid carboxymethyl transferase (BAMT), a gene involved in methylbenzoate synthesis in higher plants. The null allele is the result of a genomic insertion in the promoter region that is likely mediated by an IDLE MITE transposable element Antirrhinum majus
