Mutated genes
Locus name	AT4G27330
Alias	SPL
Organism	Arabidopsis thaliana
Description	Encodes a putative transcription factor that is required for the initiation of both micro- and megagametogenesis and is expressed in the sporogenous tissue of the anther and the ovule. SPL is a chalaza identity gene that share overlapping functions in establishing the prospective chalaza of the ovule.
