Time after time: flowering phenology and biotic interactions.
The role of biotic interactions in shaping plant flowering phenology has long been controversial; plastic responses to the abiotic environment, limited precision of biological clocks and inconsistency of selection pressures have generally been emphasized to explain phenological variation. However, part of this variation is heritable and selection analyses show that biotic interactions can modul...
متن کاملNatural soil microbes alter flowering phenology and the intensity of selection on flowering time in a wild Arabidopsis relative.
Plant phenology is known to depend on many different environmental variables, but soil microbial communities have rarely been acknowledged as possible drivers of flowering time. Here, we tested separately the effects of four naturally occurring soil microbiomes and their constituent soil chemistries on flowering phenology and reproductive fitness of Boechera stricta, a wild relative of Arabidop...
متن کاملEnvironmental 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 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...
متن کاملGenetic and Phenotypic Variation for Flowering Time Genes in Barley (Hordeum vulgare)
Objective: Flowering Time (FT) in cereals controlled by genes that had a main factor on plant development. Methods: Genetic and phenotypic diversity of four flowering time genes (FT2, FT3, FT4, Ppd-H1) in 19 genotypes of cultivated and wild barley was evaluated and a total of 107 alleles were amplified. Genotypes based on days to flowering time and molecular data were grouped into earl...
