From retrograde signaling to flowering time [PDF]
Plant's transition from vegetative to reproductive phase is balanced by intricate cascade of genes regulated by both endogenous and environmental inputs. Stress causes suppression of vegetative growth and acceleration of flowering as an emergency response for preservation of the species. Recently, we determined that expression levels of a transcription

In order to maximize reproductive success, plants have evolved different strategies to control the critical developmental shift marked by the transition to flowering. As plants have adapted to diverse environments across the globe, these strategies have

ZmCCT and the genetic basis of day-length adaptation underlying the postdomestication spread of maize [PDF]
Teosinte, the progenitor of maize, is restricted to tropical environments in Mexico and Central America. The pre-Columbian spread of maize from its center of origin in tropical Southern Mexico to the higher latitudes of the Americas required ...

The Role of FLOWERING LOCUS C Relatives in Cereals
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 ...

Flowering phenology is closely related to plant reproduction, and its response to climate change is obvious; therefore, revealing its influencing factors and interspecific changes has become an important issue in global change ecology and physical ...

A new approach to generating research-quality phenology data: The USA National Phenology Monitoring System [PDF]
The USA National Phenology Network (www.usanpn.org) has recently initiated a national effort to encourage people at different levels of expertise—from backyard naturalists to professional scientists—to observe phenology and contribute to a ...

BEE FLOWERS: A HYPOTHESIS ON FLOWER VARIETY AND BLOOMING TIMES [PDF]
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).

Flowering time runs hot and cold
Abstract Evidence suggests that anthropogenically-mediated global warming results in accelerated flowering for many plant populations. However, the fact that some plants are late flowering or unaffected by warming, underscores the complex relationship between phase change, temperature, and phylogeny.
