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 …

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

While prokaryotic pan-genomes have been shown to contain many more genes than any
individual organism, the prevalence and functional significance of differentially present …

Plants monitor changes in photoperiod and temperature to synchronize their flowering with
seasonal changes to maximize fitness. In the Arabidopsis photoperiodic flowering pathway …

The antagonistic crosstalk between gibberellic acid (GA) and abscisic acid (ABA) plays a
pivotal role in the modulation of seed germination. However, the molecular mechanism of …

The term 'photosynthetic control'describes the short-and long-term mechanisms that regulate
reactions in the photosynthetic electron transport (PET) chain so that the rate of production of …

In the last 40 years the amount of synthetic nitrogen (N) applied to crops has risen
drastically, resulting in significant increases in yield but with considerable impacts on the …

Root growth control plays an important role in plant adaptation to drought stress, but the
underlying molecular mechanisms of this control remain largely elusive. Here, a root …

CONSTANS is an evolutionarily‐conserved central component of the genetic pathway that
controls the onset of flowering in response to daylength. However, the specific biochemical …

One of the key developmental processes in flowering plants is the differentiation of the shoot
apical meristem into a floral meristem. This transition is regulated through the integration of …
