Environmental stress and flowering time
After the f loral transition the shoot apical meristem (SAM) changes its identity switching from vegetative to reproductive. In annual Arabidopsis ecotypes, the transition to f lowering is strongly promoted by variations in day length (photoperiod). The photoperiodic pathway promotes f lowering when Arabidopsis plants are exposed to long days (LDs) conditions (typical of spring and summer). Pho...
متن کاملEnvironmental stress influencing plant development and flowering.
Plants are sessile organisms and unlike animals, cannot run away from adverse environmental conditions. Therefore, they have evolved sophisticated signaling and protective systems to overcome sub-lethal stress situations. Although, effect of stress on physiology and morphology were studied earlier, the research on molecular mechanisms of stress response is albeit new. Studies at the molecular l...
متن کاملWhen can stress facilitate divergence by altering time to flowering?
Stressors and heterogeneity are ubiquitous features of natural environments, and theory suggests that when environmental qualities alter flowering schedules through phenotypic plasticity, assortative mating can result that promotes evolutionary divergence. Therefore, it is important to determine whether common ecological stressors induce similar changes in flowering time. We review previous stu...
متن کاملFloral pathway integrator gene expression mediates gradual transmission of environmental and endogenous cues to flowering time
The appropriate timing of flowering is crucial for the reproductive success of plants. Hence, intricate genetic networks integrate various environmental and endogenous cues such as temperature or hormonal statues. These signals integrate into a network of floral pathway integrator genes. At a quantitative level, it is currently unclear how the impact of genetic variation in signaling pathways o...
متن کاملFlowering: a time for integration.
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 the shoot apex. Here we review the current k...
