BRR2a Affects Flowering Time via FLC Splicing
Several pathways control time to flowering in Arabidopsis thaliana through transcriptional and posttranscriptional gene regulation. In recent years, mRNA processing has gained interest as a critical regulator of flowering time control in plants. However, the molecular mechanisms linking RNA splicing to flowering time are not well understood. In a screen for Arabidopsis early flowering mutants w...
متن کاملA Companion Cell–Dominant and Developmentally Regulated H3K4 Demethylase Controls Flowering Time in Arabidopsis via the Repression of FLC Expression
Flowering time relies on the integration of intrinsic developmental cues and environmental signals. FLC and its downstream target FT are key players in the floral transition in Arabidopsis. Here, we characterized the expression pattern and function of JMJ18, a novel JmjC domain-containing histone H3K4 demethylase gene in Arabidopsis. JMJ18 was dominantly expressed in companion cells; its tempor...
متن کاملIndependent FLC Mutations as Causes of Flowering-Time Variation in Arabidopsis thaliana and Capsella rubella
Capsella rubella is an inbreeding annual forb closely related to Arabidopsis thaliana, a model species widely used for studying natural variation in adaptive traits such as flowering time. Although mutations in dozens of genes can affect flowering of A. thaliana in the laboratory, only a handful of such genes vary in natural populations. Chief among these are FRIGIDA (FRI) and FLOWERING LOCUS C...
متن کاملRegulation of flowering in Arabidopsis by an FLC homologue.
The Arabidopsis FLC gene encodes a MADS domain protein that acts as a repressor of flowering. Late-flowering vernalization-responsive ecotypes and mutants have high steady-state levels of FLC transcript, which decrease during the promotion of flowering by vernalization. Therefore, FLC has a central role in regulating the response to vernalization. We have isolated an Arabidopsis gene, MAF1, whi...
متن کاملAlternative splicing and the control of flowering time.
The fca mutant of Arabidopsis is one of numerous late-flowering mutants in the autonomous, or constitutive, floral promotion pathway (Koornneef et al., 1991, 1998). The autonomous pathway acts independently of the photoperiod pathway and intersects with the vernalization response pathway in the control of flowering. The FCA gene encodes a novel protein that contains RNA binding domains and a pu...
