Expression and Function of Populus Homologs to TERMINAL FLOWER 1 Genes: Roles in Onset of Flowering and Shoot Phenology

Creator:

Mohamed, Rozi

Abstract:

We isolated and characterized the expression of two genes from Populus trichocarpa that are homologous to the TERMINAL FLOWER 1 (TFL1) gene from the model annual plant Arabidopsis. In Arabidopsis, overexpression of the TFL1 gene extends the vegetative growth phase, and the homozygous mutant tfl1 allele causes early flowering and...
