Flowering time: from physiology, through genetics to mechanism. (2024)
Journal Article
Maple, R., Zhu, P., Hepworth, J., Wang, J.-W., & Dean, C. (2024). Flowering time: from physiology, through genetics to mechanism. Plant Physiology, 195(1), 190–212. https://doi.org/10.1093/plphys/kiae109

Plant species have evolved different requirements for environmental/endogenous cues to induce flowering. Originally, these varying requirements were thought to reflect the action of different molecular mechanisms. Thinking changed when genetic and mo...

Oilseed rape (Brassica napus) is an important global oil crop, with spring and winter varieties grown commercially. To understand the transcriptomic differences between these varieties, we collected transcriptomes from apex and leaf tissue from a spr...
