ABSTRACT:
Plant cell lines with altered flower structures, and altered plant male and/or female sterility/fertility, and altered polyamine synthesis have been isolated using a UV mutagenizing light, polyamine synthesis inhibitors, and growth in the dark. Some of these cell lines are resistant to MGBG and exhibit elevated polyamine synthesis. Regenerated plants with unusual flowers are thus possible as are crop and flower plants with unusual flowers, and/or altered fertility capability by the method of the invention. These plant lines are also useful as research tools.
