Temperature is a key factor governing the growth and development, distribution, and
seasonal behavior of plants. The entire plant life cycle is affected by environmental …

As sessile species and without the possibility of escape, plants constantly face numerous
environmental stresses. To adapt in the external environmental cues, plants adjust …

Temperature is a key environmental cue that influences the distribution and behavior of
plants globally. Understanding how plants sense temperature and integrate this information …

Vernalization is an environmentally-induced epigenetic switch in which winter cold triggers
epigenetic silencing of floral repressors and thus provides competence to flower in spring. In …

Our understanding of the detailed molecular mechanisms underpinning adaptation is still
poor. One example for which mechanistic understanding of regulation has converged with …

Plants undergo a major physiological change as they transition from vegetative growth to
reproductive development. This transition is a result of responses to various endogenous …

Disruption of gene silencing by Polycomb protein complexes leads to homeotic
transformations and altered developmental-phase identity in plants,,,,. Here we define short …

The coordination of the timing of flowering with seasonal and development cues is a critical
life‐history trait that has been shaped by evolution to maximize reproductive success …

Histone methylation plays a fundamental role in regulating diverse developmental
processes and is also involved in silencing repetitive sequences in order to maintain …

Plants have evolved many systems to sense their environment and to modify their growth
and development accordingly. One example is vernalization, the process by which flowering …
