A Time to Grow, a Time to Flower [PDF]
The Plant Cell, 2005 Flowering is one of the most critical timing decisions for higher plants because it can determine the difference between reproductive success and failure. The transition from vegetative growth to flowering is controlled by a complex network of interconnected pathways influenced by ...

Topographic heterogeneity lengthens the duration of pollinator resources
Ecology and Evolution, 2020 The availability of sufficient and diverse resources across time is important for maintenance of biodiversity and ecosystem functioning. In this study, we examine the potential for variation in environmental conditions across topographic gradients to ...

Flowering: a time for integration
The International Journal of Developmental Biology, 2005 Flowering time is under the control of multiple environmental cues such as photoperiod and exposure to cold temperatures (vernalization). A few regulators named integrators of flowering time signals (LEAFY, SOC1 /AGL20 and FT ) integrate inputs from the different flowering cascades and convey the resulting outcome to floral meristem identity genes at ...

Flower Morphogenesis: Timing Is Key [PDF]
Developmental Cell, 2009 Flowers are unique parts of plants because they form a predictable number of organs of defined identity. This exquisite regularity defines entire plant families and has been used for taxonomic classification since ancient times. In this issue of Developmental Cell, Liu et al.

Photoreceptors and Regulation of Flowering Time [PDF]
Plant Physiology, 2000 One of the most important environmental factors affecting flowering time is the daily duration of light, the photoperiod, which was first discovered by Garner and Allard in the 1920s ([Thomas and Vince-Prue, 1997][1], and refs. therein).

Regulatory roles of miRNAs associated with the aging pathway in tree vegetative phase changes
Forestry Research, 2023 The transition from the vegetative juvenile phase to the adult phase is a crucial event in the life cycle of flowering plants, with flowering being the most important milestone.

Receptor kinase FERONIA regulates flowering time in Arabidopsis
BMC Plant Biology, 2020 Background The receptor-like kinase FEROINA (FER) plays a crucial role in controlling plant vegetative growth partially by sensing the rapid alkalinization factor (RALF) peptide.

The Role of FLOWERING LOCUS C Relatives in Cereals
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2020 FLOWERING LOCUS C (FLC) is one of the best characterized genes in plant research and is integral to vernalization-dependent flowering time regulation. Yet, despite the abundance of information on this gene and its relatives in Arabidopsis thaliana, the ...
