Frontiers in Plant Science, 2020 The appropriate timing of flowering is crucial for plant reproductive success. Studies of the molecular mechanism of flower induction in the model plant Arabidopsis thaliana showed long days and vernalization as major environmental promotive factors ...

A straightforward strategy for reducing variability in flowering time at warm ambient temperatures
Plant Signaling & Behavior, 2023 Ambient temperature is one of the major environmental factors affecting flowering. As the temperature rises, most plants, including Arabidopsis, flower more rapidly.

The control of flowering in time and space [PDF]
Journal of Experimental Botany, 2006 The transition to flowering is one of the most important developmental decisions made by plants. Classical studies have highlighted the importance of photoperiod in controlling flowering time. More recently, the identification of mutants specifically affected in the photoperiod pathway in the model system Arabidopsis thaliana has enabled the flowering ...

Genetic and Epigenetic Understanding of the Seasonal Timing of Flowering
Plant Communications, 2020 The developmental transition to flowering in many plants is timed by changing seasons, which enables plants to flower at a season that is favorable for seed production. Many plants grown at high latitudes perceive the seasonal cues of changing day length

Chemical control of flowering time [PDF]
Journal of Experimental Botany, 2016 Flowering at the right time is of great importance; it secures seed production and therefore species survival and crop yield. In addition to the genetic network controlling flowering time, there are a number of much less studied metabolites and exogenously applied chemicals that may influence the transition to flowering as well as flower opening ...

Environmental control of rice flowering time
Plant Communications, 2023 Correct measurement of environmental parameters is fundamental for plant fitness and survival, as well as for timing developmental transitions, including the switch from vegetative to reproductive growth. Important parameters that affect flowering time include day length (photoperiod) and temperature. Their response pathways have been best described in

Flowering time control in European winter wheat
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2014 Flowering time is an important trait in wheat breeding as it affects adaptation and yield potential. The aim of this study was to investigate the genetic architecture of flowering time in European winter bread wheat cultivars. To this end a population of

Diversification of flowering plants in space and time
Nature Communications, 2023 The rapid diversification and high species richness of flowering plants is regarded as ‘Darwin’s second abominable mystery’. Today the global spatiotemporal pattern of plant diversification remains elusive.

Floral bud dormancy is responsible for the different flowering times of six Pleione species
Global Ecology and Conservation, 2023 Flowering time is central to plant reproductive success and is significantly influenced by the time of floral bud differentiation and development.

BEE FLOWERS: A HYPOTHESIS ON FLOWER VARIETY AND BLOOMING TIMES [PDF]
Evolution, 1975 In arctic (Kevan, 1972), temperate (Lovell, 1903), and tropical regions, the flowers of different species of plants in a given habitat at any one time usually exhibit a variety of colors, scents, morphologies, and blooming times. Bees are the primary pollinators of many of them (Baker and Hurd, 1968).
