A proposed model for the variegated phenotype in flower colouration of peach cv. HBH. L1 and L2 indicate different layers of floral meristems, and R and r represent functional and nonfunctional alleles of the Riant gene, respectively. White flower with red/pink spots carrying two nonfunctional alleles of the Riant gene. (a) Pink flower derived from periclinal chimera, (b) pink flower with red somatic sectors derived from mericlinal chimera, (c) white flower with pink somatic sectors derived from mericlinal chimera, (d) white flower with red somatic sectors derived from sectorial chimera, (e) red flower carrying one functional and one nonfunctional allele of the Riant gene.
