Modulating the timing of flowering

Current Opinion in Biotechnology, 1997
Several genes that are normally involved in flower initiation have recently been shown to induce early flowering when expressed ectopically in transgenic plants. These findings permit the development of strategies for the rational manipulation of flowering time in agronomically important plants.

It's time to flower: the genetic control of flowering time

BioEssays, 2004
AbstractIn plants, successful sexual reproduction and the ensuing development of seeds and fruits depend on flowering at the right time. This involves coordinating flowering with the appropriate season and with the developmental history of the plant.

Control of flowering time

Current Opinion in Plant Biology, 1998
The multiple promotive and repressive pathways controlling flowering have been further defined by analysis of genetic interactions and the activation of floral meristem identity genes. Cloning of additional genes in these pathways has uncovered some of the molecular processes that control the timing of the transition to reproductive development.

Flowering Time Control

2010
A dramatic change in the life cycle of plants is the transition to flowering, which is triggered by both environmental signals, such as temperature and photoperiod, and endogenous stimuli. The dicotyledonous annual plant Arabidopsis thaliana is widely used as a model organism to study how these different signals are integrated into a developmental ...

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.

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.

The flowering-time geneFT and regulation of flowering inArabidopsis

Journal of Plant Research, 1998
Transition from vegetative to reproductive development (flowering) is one of the most important decisions during the post-embryonic development of flowering plants. More than twenty loci are known to regulate this process inArabidopsis. Some of these flowering-time genes may act at the shoot apical meristem to regulate its competence to respond to ...

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
