Ecological Adaptation Mechanisms Underlying Successful Plant Reproduction
Advanced Science, EarlyView.During floral induction, various environmental and endogenous signals converge to regulate the florigen protein, which is transported from leaves to the SAM to initiate flowering. Within the SAM, a complex network of receptor kinases and small peptides orchestrates floral development with high spatiotemporal precision.
