The timing of flowering affects the success of sexual reproduction. This developmental event
also determines crop yield, biomass, and longevity. Therefore, this mechanism has been …

Plants monitor changes in day length to coordinate flowering with favorable seasons to
increase their fitness. The day‐length specific induction of FLOWERING LOCUS T (FT) …

Flower development at the shoot apex is initiated in response to environmental cues. Day
length is one of the most important of these and is perceived in the leaves. A systemic signal …

The timing of floral transition has a direct impact on reproductive success. One of the most
important environmental factors that affect the transition is the change in day length …

In order to maximize reproductive success, plants have evolved different strategies to control
the critical developmental shift marked by the transition to flowering. As plants have adapted …

Many of the developmental responses and behaviors in plants that occur throughout the
year are controlled by photoperiod; among these, seasonal flowering is the most …

One mechanism through which flowering in response to seasonal change is brought about
is by sensing the fluctuation in day-length; the photoperiod. Flowering induction occurs …

The transition from vegetative to reproductive growth is controlled by day length in many
plant species. Day length is perceived in leaves and induces a systemic signal, called …

Many plants use information about changing day length (photoperiod) to align their
flowering time with seasonal changes to increase reproductive success. A mechanism for …

Long days (LD) promote flowering of Arabidopsis thaliana compared with short days (SD) by
activating the photoperiodic pathway. Here we show that growth under very‐SD (3 h) or …
