Abstract: Studies of floral patterning took a big step forward with the proposal of the ABC model — whereby the identity of homeotic genes is determined by a combinatorial code of homeotic genes termed A, B and C. A new study shows how these genes are expressed at the right time and place, finding that expression of homeotic genes is tied to expression of the so-called meristem-identity genes by the LEAFY protein.
