Abstract: The characters of flower quality such as flower color, scent, shape, and blooming time are related directly to the commodity value of the plant. Functional research in flower-quality-related genes of ornamental flowers is important. We review the achievements in this area over the past 10 years in China to provide information for molecular design breeding.
