The Candidate Photoperiod Gene MtFE Promotes Growth and Flowering in Medicago truncatula
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2021 Flowering time influences the yield and productivity of legume crops. Medicago truncatula is a reference temperate legume that, like the winter annual Arabidopsis thaliana, shows accelerated flowering in response to vernalization (extended cold) and long-

Initial performance of own-rooted and budded 'Sunraycer' nectarine plants [PDF]
Pesquisa Agropecuária Brasileira, 2020 : The objective of this work was to evaluate the performance in the field of 'Sunraycer' nectarine plants when own rooted and budded onto 13 clonal rootstocks. For this, flowering, flushing, fruit maturity, vigor, and production were assessed.

Heat unit requirement and performances of litchi under Sub-Himalayan terai region of West Bengal
Journal of Horticultural Sciences, 2022 To determine the heat unit requirement and assess its subsequent effects on flowering and fruiting characteristics, a field experiment was conducted during 2018-19 with seven cultivars of litchi viz., Calcuttia, Elaichi, Bedana, Bombai, China, Shahi and

Variation in the flowering time orthologs BrFLC and BrSOC1 in a natural population of Brassica rapa. [PDF]
, 2015 Understanding the genetic basis of natural phenotypic variation is of great importance, particularly since selection can act on this variation to cause evolution.

Trends in Ecology & Evolution, 2009 In the Epilogue of Understanding Flowers and Flowering, Beverley Glover states that the book ‘was conceived with a single clear aim: to link what we know of the molecular and genetic control of how flowers come to look as they do with what we know from evolutionary and ecological perspectives about why they look as they do.’ This is an ambitious ...

Direct and indirect selection on flowering time, water-use efficiency (WUE, δ (13)C), and WUE plasticity to drought in Arabidopsis thaliana. [PDF]
, 2014 Flowering time and water-use efficiency (WUE) are two ecological traits that are important for plant drought response. To understand the evolutionary significance of natural genetic variation in flowering time, WUE, and WUE plasticity to drought in ...

A photo-responsive F-box protein FOF2 regulates floral initiation by promoting FLC expression in Arabidopsis. [PDF]
, 2017 Floral initiation is regulated by various genetic pathways in response to light, temperature, hormones and developmental status; however, the molecular mechanisms underlying the interactions between different genetic pathways are not fully understood ...

Regulation and Identity of Florigen: Flowering Locus T Moves Center Stage [PDF]
, 2008 The transition from vegetative to reproductive growth is controlled by day length in many plant species. Day length is perceived in leaves and induces a systemic signal, called florigen, that moves through the phloem to the shoot apex.
