Various regulatory genes encoding transcription factors and miRNAs regulate carpel number. Multicarpelly is normally associated with increased size of the floral meristem, and several genetic factors have been discovered that influence this characteristic. A fundamental understanding of the regulatory genes affecting carpel number can facilitate strategies for agricultural yield improvement, which is crucial, given that the global population is growing rapidly. A multicarpellate plant may provide a significantly higher yield than a plant bearing fewer carpels. Higher yields can be achieved via various means; in this review, we provide an overview of the current knowledge of the various regulatory factors that contribute to multicarpelly and the potential of increasing carpel number to achieve an increased yield.
各种调节基因，包括转录因子和 miRNA，调节心皮的数量。多心皮通常与花分生组织的增大有关，已经发现了几个影响这一特征的遗传因素。对影响心皮数量的调节基因的基本了解可以促进农业产量提高的策略，这是至关重要的，因为全球人口正在迅速增长。多心皮植物的产量可能比少心皮植物高得多。可以通过各种手段来提高产量；在这篇综述中，我们概述了导致多心皮的各种调节因子的现有知识，以及增加心皮数量以提高产量的潜力。
