FLC or not FLC: the other side of vernalization.

Vernalization is the promotion of the competence for flowering by long periods of low temperatures such as those typically experienced during winters. In Arabidopsis, the vernalization response is, to a large extent, mediated by the repression of the floral repressor FLC, and the stable epigenetic silencing of FLC after cold treatments is essential for vernalization. In addition to FLC, other v...

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...

Vernalizing cold is registered digitally at FLC.

A fundamental property of many organisms is an ability to sense, evaluate, and respond to environmental signals. In some situations, generation of an appropriate response requires long-term information storage. A classic example is vernalization, where plants quantitatively sense long-term cold and epigenetically store this cold-exposure information to regulate flowering time. In Arabidopsis th...

Design and Simulation of Takagi–sugeno Flc Based Drive System

In this chapter, modeling and simulation of a Takagi–Sugeno based fuzzy logic control strategy in order to control one of the most important parameters of the IM, viz., speed, is presented. In the control of IMs, FLCs play a very important role. In this context, a novel FLC is developed based on the Takagi–Sugeno principles. This method gives very good response compared to other methods such as...
