GENETIC CONTROL OF FLOWERING TIME IN ARABIDOPSIS

Annual Review of Plant Physiology and Plant Molecular Biology, 1998
▪ Abstract  The timing of the transition from vegetative to reproductive development is of great fundamental and applied interest but is still poorly understood. Recently, molecular-genetic approaches have been used to dissect this process in Arabidopsis.

Seasonal and developmental timing of flowering

The Plant Journal, 2010
SummaryThe coordination of the timing of flowering with seasonal and development cues is a critical life‐history trait that has been shaped by evolution to maximize reproductive success. Decades of studying many plant species have revealed several of the fascinating systems that plants have evolved to control flowering time: such as the perception of ...

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

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 ...

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 ...

Controlling Flowering Time

Science, 2004
How plants measure day length and use it to synchronize flowering to the changing seasons has been of wide interest since photoperiodism was first described in the 1920s. Recently, major advances have been made in understanding the underlying mechanisms by using Arabidopsis and rice as models.

A Time and a Place for a Flower

Science's STKE, 2005
Early plant responses to spring environmental signals, such as day length or vernalization, occur in the leaves, but the flowers form at a meristem that shifts from vegetative to floral growth. The mysterious mobile mediator between these two sites has been called "florigen." Wigge et al. and Abe et al.

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.

“A Time of Fruits and Flowers”

2016
This chapter considers the last years of Horace’s presidency, his departure from Lexington, his plans for a traveling academy, his arrival in New Orleans, and the last days and months of his life. The relief controversy speeded the rise of Jacksonian populism, and in 1824 Kentuckians elected Democratic Republican Joseph Desha as governor.

The Timing and Patterning of Flowering

2011
This chapter examines the factors that affect the timing and patterning of flowering, as well as the effects of different flowering patterns on pollination outcomes. Plants should flower in ways that maximize their own reproductive success. The “flowering pattern” is a composite of the timing and frequency of individual flowers opening, and also of ...
