Plant growth and development, particularly the induction of flowering, are tightly controlled
by key regulators in response to endogenous and environmental cues. The FLOWERING …

Plant ontogeny relies on the correct timing and sequence of transitions between individual
developmental phases. These are specified by gene expression patterns that are …

Photoperiodic plants perceive changes in day length as seasonal cues to orchestrate their
vegetative and reproductive growth. Although it is known that the floral transition of …

Plants monitor seasonal cues to optimize reproductive success by tuning onset of
reproduction and inflorescence architecture. TERMINAL FLOWER 1 (TFL1) and …

Seasonal behavior is important for fitness in temperate environments but it is unclear how
progeny gain their initial seasonal entrainment. Plants use temperature signals to measure …

Plants integrate environmental information into their developmental program throughout
their lifetime. Light and temperature are particularly critical cues for plants to correctly time …

Timing of the floral transition and inflorescence development strongly affect yield in barley
(Hordeum vulgare). Therefore, we examined the effects of daylength and the photoperiod …

Abstract FLOWERING LOCUS T (FT) regulates the floral transition in many plant species by
integrating environmental seasonal signals and internal cues. Here we show that two …

Highlights•Functional consequence of PcG gene family expansion.•Boundaries between
PRCs dissolve due to multiple direct interactions.•PRC1 can function upstream of …

Plants commit to flowering based on endogenous and exogenous information that they can
remember across mitotic cell divisions. Here, we review how signal perception and …
