- Observation Some MADS-box subfamilies were lost in Balanophora species.
- Observation MADS-box redundancy was reduced in both Balanophora species.
- Observation Genes that functioned in the transition from vegetative to floral production stages suffered a significant loss.
- Observation The ABCE model genes remained intact in Balanophora species.
- Observation Vernalization and autonomous flowering-time pathways remained comparatively integrated in Balanophora.
- Observation Genes in photoperiod and circadian clock pathways were almost lost in Balanophora.
- Observation Convergent gene loss in flowering regulation occurred in Balanophora and in Sapria himalayana.
