De novo transcriptome assembly reveals characteristics of flower sex determination of Excoecaria agallocha

Key message

MADS-box genes family may play important roles in the flower sex determination in Excoecaria agallocha. A total of 73 MADS-box genes were identified in E. agallocha. De novo transcriptome assembly analysis suggested that AP1/FUL, AP3/PI, AGL104, and SOC1 plays potential roles in E. agallocha flower sex determination.
