Vernalization regulatory network identifies potential novel functions for genes in the HvVRN2 locus

New Phytologist, Volume 250, Issue 6, Page 4036-4053, June 2026.
Summary Flowering is controlled by environmental and genetic factors. Vernalization requirement in barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) is determined by the allele in HvVRN1 and the presence of locus HvVRN2, which consists of two zinc‐finger and CONSTANS‐like domains (ZCCT) genes: HvVRN2a and HvVRN2b.

LsMAPK6 Phosphorylates the LsCO Protein to Enhance Its Stability and Transcriptional Activity, Promoting Floral Transition Upon High Temperatures in Lettuce

Plant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 24, Issue 6, Page 4064-4083, June 2026.
ABSTRACT High temperatures significantly accelerate the timing of floral transition, namely, bolting and flowering, in lettuce, which results in severe loss of marketable yield. Thus, understanding the genetic regulation of floral transition is of great interest to plant biologists and lettuce breeders.

Florigen Coming of Age after 70 Years [PDF]

The Plant Cell, 2006
The report that FT mRNA is the long-sought florigen, or at least part of it ([Huang et al., 2005][1]), has attracted much attention and was ranked the number three breakthrough of 2005 by the journal Science ([Anonymous, 2005][2]).

A florigen paralog is required for short-day vernalization in a pooid grass

eLife, 2019
Perception of seasonal cues is critical for reproductive success in many plants. Exposure to winter cold is a cue that can confer competence to flower in the spring via a process known as vernalization.

Analysis of promoter activity reveals that GmFTL2 expression differs from that of the known Flowering Locus T genes in soybean

Crop Journal, 2017
Regulation of flowering is one of the key issues in crop yield. The Flowering Locus T (FT) gene is a well-known florigen, which integrates various signals from multiple flowering-regulation pathways to initiate flowering.

Systemic movement of FT mRNA and a possible role in floral induction

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2012
FLOWERING LOCUS T (FT) protein is known to be part of the mobile flowering inducing ‘florigen’ signal in plants, but it may not be acting alone. This article reviews the data that FT mRNA can also move systemically throughout the plant and into the shoot

Molecular cloning and characterization of FLOWERING LOCUS T (FT)gene from kinnow mandarin (Citrus reticulata)

The Indian Journal of Agricultural Sciences
FLOWERING LOCUS T (FT) is considered as a crucial regulator involved in early flowering induction which functions by switching the vegetative phase into reproductive phase.
