Vernalization and flowering time

Current Opinion in Biotechnology, 2005
Vernalization is the process by which flowering is promoted by prolonged exposure to the cold of a typical winter. In certain plant species, the role of vernalization is to suppress the expression of genes that encode repressors of flowering. In Arabidopsis, this suppression is an epigenetic phenomenon in the sense that it is mitotically stable in the ...

Flowering time regulation: Agrochemical control of flowering

Nature Plants, 2017
The time of flowering is important in crop production. Rice has now been genetically engineered to respond to agrochemical spraying, which results in floral induction. This research offers new perspectives to control the phenological development of crops in the field.

Characterization of Flowering Time Mutants

2019
Timing of flowering, which is adapted to the ambient environment, is one of the key traits to ensure the reproductive success of plants. Our current understanding of the complex genetic control network of this trait is mostly derived from the studies in the model plant species Arabidopsis thaliana. Arabidopsis thaliana is an annual facultative long-day

Assessing Flowering Time Under Different Photoperiods

2022
Flowering time is one of the most important developmental transitions in plants, especially in annuals such as Arabidopsis thaliana. However, flowering is also a critical agronomic trait, as it impacts the level of vegetative biomass produced (e.g., leaves) or the amount of seed (grain) generated.

Flowers of Time

2020
The literary lineage of postapocalyptic fiction — stories set after civilization's destruction — is a long one, spanning the biblical tale of Noah and Hesiod's Works and Days to the works of Mary Shelley, Octavia Butler, Cormac McCarthy, and many others. Traveling from antiquity to the present, this book reveals how postapocalyptic fiction differs from

Understanding flowering time.

CABI Reviews, 2008
Abstract The timing of the onset of flowering can be critical for the competence and survival of a plant species in particular environments. Regulation of flowering time in plants involves complex interactions between several endogenous and environmental factors.

Comparative genetics of flowering time

Plant Molecular Biology, 1997
Analysis of genes controlling flowering time (heading date) contributes to our understanding of fundamental principles of plant development and is of practical importance because of the effects of flowering time on plant adaptation and crop yield. This review discusses the extent to which plants may share common genetic mechanisms for the control of ...

No Time for Flowers

Annals of Internal Medicine, 1992
Excerpt The doctor's late now and that means she'll be mad. She hasn't called either, like she usually does when she's held up at the hospital and she'll be 5 minutes late getting to the office.

Control of flowering time in plants

Current Opinion in Genetics & Development, 1996
The mechanisms by which the transition to flowering is regulated in plants have been the subject of intense physiological study for many years. Recent studies, particularly in Arabidopsis thaliana, have revealed the genetic complexity of flowering. Flowering appears to be controlled by multiple pathways that are influenced by the environment in which ...

Flowering time: Have florigen, will travel

Nature Plants, 2016
Florigen plant hormone is made in the leaf and then travels to the shoot apical meristem to trigger flowering. The phloem-mobile metal-binding protein NaKR1 physically interacts with florigen and mediates its long-distance transport through the sieve element.
