This project investigates the role of FLOWERING LOCUS T protein in plant flowering processes. By utilizing molecular genetics and genomics, it aims to identify genes involved in FT function and transport, enhancing understanding of flowering regulation in response to environmental signals.
Proteins related to FLOWERING LOCUS T (FT) strongly induce flowering of many plant species.
In Arabidopsis thaliana FT is a component of the photoperiodic pathway and its transcription is activated under long days characteristic of summer.
Recent studies showed that FT protein is expressed in the leaf vascular tissue and then moves through the phloem to the shoot apex, where it causes changes in gene expression that reprogram the shoot apical meristem to form flowers instead of leaves.
