The dynamics of FLOWERING LOCUS T expression encodes long-day information
(Wiley, 2015-09)
Long days repeatedly enhance the expression of the FLOWERING LOCUS T (FT) gene during the evening and early night. This signal induces flowering despite low FT expression the rest of the day. To investigate whether this ...
Acceleration of flowering during shade avoidance in Arabidopsis alters the balance between FLOWERING LOCUS C-mediated repression and photoperiodic induction of flowering.
(American Society of Plant Biologist, 2008-09)
The timing of the floral transition in Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana) is influenced by a number of environmental signals. Here, we have focused on acceleration of flowering in response to vegetative shade, a condition ...
Combinatorial activities of SHORT VEGETATIVE PHASE and FLOWERING LOCUS C define distinct modes of flowering regulation in Arabidopsis
(BioMed Central, 2015-02)
BACKGROUND: The initiation of flowering is an important developmental transition as it marks the beginning of the reproductive phase in plants. The MADS-box transcription factors (TFs) FLOWERING LOCUS C (FLC) and SHORT ...
Flowering genes and the photothermal flowering responses of pea (Pisum sativum): a re-analysis
(C S I R O PUBLISHING, 1999)
Attempts to quantify the effects of the flowering genes Lf, Sn and Hr in Pisum sativum L. on durations from sowing to flowering (f) have been hindered by the often strongly interactive effects of temperature and photoperiod. ...
Improvement of alfalfa forage quality and management through the down-regulation of MsFTa1
(Blackwell Publishing, 2019-09)
Alfalfa (Medicago sativa L.) is one of the most important forage crops worldwide. As a perennial, alfalfa is cut several times each year. Farmers face a dilemma: If cut earlier, forage nutritive value is much higher but ...
Effect of FLOWERING LOCUS C on seed germination depends on dormancy
(Csiro Publishing, 2017-03)
FLOWERING LOCUS C (FLC) has a major regulatory role in the timing of flowering in Arabidopsis thaliana (L.) Heynh. and has more recently been shown to influence germination. Here, we investigated the conditions under which ...
CONSTANS delays Arabidopsis flowering under short days
(Wiley Blackwell Publishing, Inc, 2019-03)
Long days (LD) promote flowering of Arabidopsis thaliana compared with short days (SD) by activating the photoperiodic pathway. Here we show that growth under very-SD (3 h) or darkness (on sucrose) also accelerates flowering ...
Genetic and physical mapping of the earliness perse locus Eps - Am1 in Triticum monococcum identifies early flowering 3 (ELF3) as a candidate gene
(2016-07)
Wheat cultivars exposed to optimal photoperiod and vernalization treatments still exhibit differences in heading time. This variation, known as earliness per se (Eps), is important for the fine-tuning of flowering and the ...
Pollinator response to flower color polymorphism and floral display in a plant with a single-locus floral color polymorphism: consequences for plant reproduction
(Springer Tokyo, 2012-03)
Variation in flower color, particularly polymorphism, in which two or more different flower color phenotypes occur in the same population or species, may be affected or maintained by mechanisms that depend on pollinators. ...
