Molecular Cloning and Functional Analysis of Three FLOWERING LOCUS T (FT) Homologous Genes from Chinese Cymbidium [PDF]

International Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2012
The FLOWERING LOCUS T (FT) gene plays crucial roles in regulating the transition from the vegetative to reproductive phase. To understand the molecular mechanism of reproduction, three homologous FT genes were isolated and characterized from Cymbidium sinense “Qi Jian Bai Mo”, Cymbidium goeringii and Cymbidium ensifolium “Jin Si Ma Wei”.

High-density linkage to physical mapping in a unique Tall × Dwarf coconut (Cocos nucifera L.) outbred F2 uncovers a major QTL for flowering time colocalized with the FLOWERING LOCUS T (FT) [PDF]

Frontiers in Plant Science
IntroductionThe coconut tree crop (Cocos nucifera L.) provides vital resources for millions of people worldwide. Coconut germplasm is largely classified into ‘Tall’ (Typica) and ‘Dwarf’ (Nana) types.

Linkage mapping identifies a non-synonymous mutation in FLOWERING LOCUS T (FT-B1) increasing spikelet number per spike. [PDF]

Sci Rep, 2021
AbstractTotal spikelet number per spike (TSN) is a major component of spike architecture in wheat (Triticumaestivum L.). A major and consistent quantitative trait locus (QTL) was discovered for TSN in a doubled haploid spring wheat population grown in the field over 4 years. The QTL on chromosome 7B explained up to 20.5% of phenotypic variance.

Overexpression of Arabidopsis FLOWERING LOCUS T (FT) gene improves floral development in cassava (Manihot esculenta, Crantz). [PDF]

PLoS One, 2017
Cassava is a tropical storage-root crop that serves as a worldwide source of staple food for over 800 million people. Flowering is one of the most important breeding challenges in cassava because in most lines flowering is late and non-synchronized, and flower production is sparse.

SiFTL and SiHd3a are positive regulators of flowering time in sesame (Sesamum indicum L.) [PDF]

Frontiers in Plant Science
Flowering time, a critical trait for crop adaptation, is regulated by plants’ ability to sense light signals, which influences gene expression and the transition from vegetative to reproductive growth.

FLOWERING LOCUS T (FT) gene regulates short-day flowering in low latitude Xishuangbanna cucumber (Cucumis sativus var. xishuangbannanesis)

Vegetable Research, 2023
Xishuangbanna (XIS) cucumber is a semi-wild cucumber originating from a low latitude. XIS cucumbers are strictly short-day plants, while cultivated cucumbers are day-neutral plants.

Isolation and functional characterization of JcFT, a FLOWERING LOCUS T (FT) homologous gene from the biofuel plant Jatropha curcas. [PDF]

BMC Plant Biol, 2014
Physic nut (Jatropha curcas L.) is a potential feedstock for biofuel production because Jatropha oil is highly suitable for the production of the biodiesel and bio-jet fuels. However, Jatropha exhibits low seed yield as a result of unreliable and poor flowering. FLOWERING LOCUS T (FT) -like genes are important flowering regulators in higher plants.

Promoting flowering, lateral shoot outgrowth, leaf development, and flower abscission in tobacco plants overexpressing cotton FLOWERING LOCUS T (FT)-like gene GhFT1. [PDF]

Front Plant Sci, 2015
FLOWERING LOCUS T (FT) encodes a mobile signal protein, recognized as major component of florigen, which has a central position in regulating flowering, and also plays important roles in various physiological aspects. A mode is recently emerging for the balance of indeterminate and determinate growth, which is controlled by the ratio of FT-like and ...

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.

Post-fertilization expression of FLOWERING LOCUS T suppresses reproductive reversion

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2014
FLOWERING LOCUS T (FT) encodes a systemic signal communicating the perception of long day photoperiod from leaves to the shoot apex to induce the floral transition.
