Control of water‐use efficiency by florigen [PDF]

Plant, Cell & Environment, 2019
AbstractA major issue in modern agriculture is water loss through stomata during photosynthetic carbon assimilation. In water‐limited ecosystems, annual plants have strategies to synchronize their growth and reproduction to the availability of water. Some species or ecotypes of flowers are early to ensure that their life cycles are completed before the
