Fasciation in Strawberry Floral Organs and Possible Implications for Floral Transition
The Horticulture Journal, 2022 Fasciation 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 ...

Tetrahydrofolate Modulates Floral Transition through Epigenetic Silencing [PDF]
Plant Physiology, 2017 Folates, termed from tetrahydrofolate (THF) and its derivatives, function as coenzymes in one-carbon transfer reactions and play a central role in synthesis of nucleotides and amino acids. Dysfunction of cellular folate metabolism leads to serious defects in plant development; however, the molecular mechanisms of folate-mediated cellular modifications ...

Circular RNAs modulate the floral fate acquisition in soybean shoot apical meristem
BMC Plant Biology, 2023 Background Soybean (Glycine max), a major oilseed and protein source, requires a short-day photoperiod for floral induction. Though key transcription factors controlling flowering have been identified, the role of the non-coding genome is limited ...

Non-equilibrium dynamics and floral trait interactions shape extant angiosperm diversity. [PDF]
, 2016 Why are some traits and trait combinations exceptionally common across the tree of life, whereas others are vanishingly rare? The distribution of trait diversity across a clade at any time depends on the ancestral state of the clade, the rate at which ...

The Arabidopsis JAGGED gene encodes a zinc finger protein that promotes leaf tissue development [PDF]
, 2004 Important goals in understanding leaf development are to identify genes involved in pattern specification, and also genes that translate this information into cell types and tissue structure. Loss-of-function mutations at the JAGGED (JAG) locus result in

Extensive nuclear reprogramming and endoreduplication in mature leaf during floral induction
BMC Plant Biology, 2019 Background The floral transition is a complex developmental event, fine-tuned by various environmental and endogenous cues to ensure the success of offspring production. Leaves are key organs in sensing floral inductive signals, such as a change in light
