Abstract
KNOX (KNOTTED1-like homeobox) is a family of transcription factors with important functions in plants, which belong to a subfamily TALE (three amino-acid loop extension) superfamily of the homeobox gene family. Research have shown that members of this family are widely involved in plant growth, development and morphogenesis. This paper mainly reviews the structure, classification, biological functions and molecular interaction mechanism of KNOX2 genes. The latest research progress is summarized in order to provide reference and assistance for further studies on the growth, development, and functions of this transcription factor family in other species.
