High-Resolution Crystal Structure of Arabidopsis FLOWERING LOCUS T Illuminates Its Phospholipid-Binding Site in Flowering

iScience, 2019
Summary: Arabidopsis FLOWERING LOCUS T (FT) is a pivotal component of florigen, a long-range mobile flowering signal. Here, we determined the 1.0 Å-resolution crystal structure of FT, a significantly higher-resolution crystal structure of FT than ...

Mobile Flowering Locus T RNA – Biological Relevance and Biotechnological Potential

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2022
Many systemically mobile mRNAs have been revealed in phloem. However, very few of them have been found to be of clear signaling functions. One of such rare examples is the mobile Flowering locus T (FT) mRNA despite the continuous debate about its ...

FLOWERING LOCUS T (FT) CONTROLS FLOWER DEVELOPMENT IN PLANTS

, 2019
Flower development is a crucial trait of higher-plant and is controlled by the action of central genetic regulator, FLOWERING LOCUS T (FT) ; one of the most crucial promoters of the floral transition that encodes the phloem-mobile florigen protein which is an essential plants flowering signal.

NUCLEAR FACTOR Y, Subunit A (NF-YA) Proteins Positively Regulate Flowering and Act Through FLOWERING LOCUS T. [PDF]

PLoS Genetics, 2016
Photoperiod dependent flowering is one of several mechanisms used by plants to initiate the developmental transition from vegetative growth to reproductive growth. The NUCLEAR FACTOR Y (NF-Y) transcription factors are heterotrimeric complexes composed of

The nature of floral signals in Arabidopsis. I. Photosynthesis and a far-red photoresponse independently regulate flowering by increasing expression of FLOWERING LOCUS T (FT) [PDF]

Journal of Experimental Botany, 2008
Arabidopsis flowers in long day (LD) in response to signals transported from the photoinduced leaf to the shoot apex. These LD signals may include protein of the gene FLOWERING LOCUS T (FT) while in short day (SD) with its slower flowering, signalling may involve sucrose and gibberellin. Here, it is shown that after 5 weeks growth in SD, a single LD up-

Arabidopsis MSI1 functions in photoperiodic flowering time control

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2014
Appropriate timing of flowering is crucial for crop yield and the reproductive success of plants. Flowering can be induced by a number of molecular pathways that respond to internal and external signals such as photoperiod, vernalization or light quality,

Clock-Controlled and FLOWERING LOCUS T (FT)-Dependent Photoperiodic Pathway in Lotus japonicus I: Verification of the Flowering-Associated Function of an FT Homolog

Bioscience, Biotechnology, and Biochemistry, 2013
During the last decade, significant research progress in the study of Arabidopsis thaliana has been made in defining the molecular mechanism by which the plant circadian clock regulates flowering time in response to changes in photoperiod. It is generally accepted that the clock-controlled CONSTANS (CO)-FLOWERING LOCUS T (FT)-mediated external ...

BBX7 interacts with BBX8 to accelerate flowering in chrysanthemum

Molecular Horticulture, 2023
The quantitative control of FLOWERING LOCUS T (FT) activation is important for the floral transition in flowering plants. However, the flowering regulation mechanisms in the day-neutral, summer-flowering chrysanthemum plant remain unclear. In this study,

Progress on the Multifaceted Roles of Flowering Control Gene FLOWERING LOCUS T (FT)

Botanical Research, 2014
高等植物开花转变过程中，FLOWERING LOCUS T (FT)基因编码的蛋白产物是可以长距离转运的成花激素，是植物成花转变过程中的关键调控因子。目前研究发现，在一些植物中FT基因不仅可以促进植株成花，还表现出抑制植物开花的特性。同时，研究表明FT基因参与到控制植株坐果、营养生长、气孔开放、促进结薯和侧枝生长等发育过程。本文主要回顾了FT基因近几年的研究进展，为进一步深入了解和研究FT-like亚家族基因的功能提供了理论依据。The FLOWERING LOCUS T (FT) protein, a mobile signal recognized as a major component of florigen, has a central position in mediating the ...
