Human beings live in a world defined by daily cycles of light and darkness caused by the Earth’s rotation around its axis.Plants,like most living organisms,have evolved internal circadian clocks that time biological ...

Plants are sessile organisms that have acquired highly plastic developmental strategies to adapt to the environment.Among these processes,the floral transition is essential to ensure reproductive success and is finely...

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 targeted for improvement along with crop d...

In Arabidopsis,photoperiodic flowering is controlled by the regulatory hub gene CONSTANS(CO),whereas floral organ senescence is regulated by the jasmonates(JAs).Because these processes are chronologically ordered,it r...

The transcription factor CONSTANS(CO)integrates day-length information to induce the expression of florigen FLOWERING LOCUS T(FT)in Arabidopsis.We recently reported that the C-terminal CCT domain of CO forms a complex...
