Flowering in higher plants is controlled by both the internal and environmental cues. In Arabidopsis, several major genetic loci have been defined as the key switches to control flowering. The Flowering Locus C (FLC) ...
Flowering involves a transition process from vegetative growth to reproductive development, in which a series of routine changes take place in the shoot apical meristems from metabolic pathway to external phenotype. E...

Since the finding of CaM, i. e. Ca2+-receptor in animals and plants, the roles of Ca2+ and CaM acting as the second messengers have been widely studied. In animals, CaM can regulate much more enz...
Induction of flowering in Japanese morning glory was inhibited when 0.04 mol/L DL-p-fluorophenylalanine (FPA), an amino acid antimetabolite, was applied during an inductive dark period through cotyledons. The applicat...
Distant hybridization is not only an effective way for diversifying hereditary variation, creating new varieties, forms and species, but also has significant implications in the settlement of many theoretical problems...
Rice is one kind of thermophilic plant, in which Oryza sativa var.japanica is more resistant to chilling temperature than O. sativa var. indica. As we reported before, the oxidase of mitochondrion from japanica has lo...
Ⅰ. INTRODUCTION It is theoretically and practically important to induce the dihaploid plantlets from tetraploid Solanum tuberosum L. (2n=4x=48) for the research of potato genetics and breeding, especially for the uti...
Through panicle to panicle inspection at heading stage, six male-sterile rice plants were found in the paddy fields where several varieties were grown from 1964 to 1965 in Hunan Province. The frequency of occurrence o...
