AGAMOUS-LIKE 17, a novel flowering promoter, acts in a FT-independent photoperiod pathway.
The photoperiod pathway is a genetically conserved pathway that affects flowering in distantly related angiosperms. Here we report a novel flowering promoter AGAMOUS-LIKE 17 (AGL17) acting in the photoperiod pathway of Arabidopsis. AGL17 transcripts were detectable in various plant organs with the highest expression in the root. Under long-day conditions, expression of AGL17 gradually increased...
متن کاملFLOWERING LOCUS C encodes a novel MADS domain protein that acts as a repressor of flowering.
Winter-annual ecotypes of Arabidopsis are relatively late flowering, unless the flowering of these ecotypes is promoted by exposure to cold (vernalization). This vernalization-suppressible, late-flowering phenotype results from the presence of dominant, late-flowering alleles at two loci, FRIGIDA (FRI) and FLOWERING LOCUS C (FLC). In this study, we report that flc null mutations result in early...
متن کاملCharacterization of an AGAMOUS-like MADS Box Protein, a Probable Constituent of Flowering and Fruit Ripening Regulatory System in Banana
The MADS-box family of genes has been shown to play a significant role in the development of reproductive organs, including dry and fleshy fruits. In this study, the molecular properties of an AGAMOUS like MADS box transcription factor in banana cultivar Giant governor (Musa sp, AAA group, subgroup Cavendish) has been elucidated. We have detected a CArG-box sequence binding AGAMOUS MADS-box pro...
متن کاملInduction of flowering by seasonal changes in photoperiod.
In many plants, major developmental transitions such as the initiation of flowering are synchronized to the changing seasons. Day length provides one of the environmental cues used to achieve this. We describe the molecular mechanisms that measure day length and control flowering in Arabidopsis. Also, we compare these mechanisms with those that control flowering time in rice. This comparison su...
متن کاملInteraction of Photoperiod & Vernalization in Flowering of Sweet Clover (Melilotus).
Melilotuis albus (alba) Desr. and M. officinalis (L.) Lam. are normally biennials flowering only in the 2nd year of growth. Under natural conditions the seeds germinate in the spring and the plants grow slowly during the first season, reaching a height of 1 to 2 feet. An enlarged storage root with a number of adventitious buds is formed in the fall and lives through the winter. In the second sp...
