We examined the formation of flower buds and floral organs at five growth stages and compared between normal flowers and those that emerged from the centre of another flower (i.e. flowers-in-flower). Gene expression was analysed via qRT-PCR. When compared with normal flowers, expression of nine genes at corresponding time periods showed clearly different trends in the flowers-in-flower samples, depending upon whether those abnormal structures were of the first types (1–1 and 1–2) or the second types (2–1 and 2–2). For example, at each time point, expression ofAP2,STKandSHPwas notably higher in 2–1 flowers than in either 1–1 or 1–2 flowers. By contrast,AGexpression was up-regulated more between Stages 4 and 5 for normal flowers than for the other types. Furthermore, when compared with normal floral organs,AP1transcripts were barely detected in the stamens and pistils of mutant samples, and expression was lower in the flowers-in-flower sepals and petals. Except for 2–2 flowers at Stage 5,STKandSHPexpression was higher in the mutant organs than in the normal organs. These results suggest that formation of the flowers-in-flower morphology is closely related to down-regulation ofAP1andAGand up-regulation ofAP2,STK, andSHP.
