Antagonistic Transcription Factor Complexes Modulate the Floral Transition in Rice
The Plant Cell, 2017 Plants measure day or night lengths to coordinate specific developmental changes with a favorable season. In rice (Oryza sativa), the reproductive phase is initiated by exposure to short days when expression of HEADING DATE 3a (Hd3a) and RICE FLOWERING LOCUS T 1 (RFT1) is induced in leaves.

A genetic and molecular model for flower development in Arabidopsis thaliana [PDF]
, 1991 Cells in developing organisms do not only differentiate, they differentiate in defined patterns. A striking example is the differentiation of flowers, which in most plant families consist of four types of organs: sepals, petals, stamens and carpels, each

Integrating hormones into the floral‐transition pathway of Arabidopsis thaliana [PDF]
Plant, Cell & Environment, 2009 ABSTRACTThe transition from vegetative to reproductive growth is a major phase change in angiosperms. In annual plants such as Arabidopsis thaliana (Arabidopsis), this change is irreversible, and as such, the regulation of its timing must be tightly controlled. Plant hormone (phytohormone) signalling is known to regulate suites of morphogenic processes

Genetic Analysis of Axillary Meristem Development in Arabidopsis: Roles of MIR164, CUC1, CUC2, CUC3 and LAS, and identification of novel regulators. [PDF]
, 2007 Aerial architecture and reproductive success in higher plants is determined by the formation of secondary axes of growth which are formed by axillary meristems initiated post-embryonically in the axils of leaves.

The CLAVATA and SHOOT MERISTEMLESS loci competitively regulate meristem activity in Arabidopsis [PDF]
, 1996 The CLAVATA (CLV1 and CLV3) and SHOOT MERISTEMLESS (STM) genes specifically regulate shoot meristem development in Arabidopsis. CLV and STH appear to have opposite functions: c1v1 and Clv3 mutants accumulate excess undifferentiated cells in the shoot and

Fasciation in Strawberry Floral Organs and Possible Implications for Floral Transition
Fasciation in Strawberry Floral Organs and Possible Implications for Floral TransitionFasciation in strawberry is characterized by an enlarged and flattened receptacle, clustering of flowers, and altered inflorescence architecture. However, the developmental process of fasciated flowers remains obscure. In this study, the fasciation incidence and developmental process in the primary fruit and inflorescence architecture were evaluated ...

CLAVATA3 is a specific regulator of shoot and floral meristem development affecting the same processes as CLAVATA1 [PDF]
