Integration of spatial and temporal information during floral induction in Arabidopsis.

TL;DR: Data suggest that FT primarily controls the timing of flowering of Arabidopsis, and that integration of temporal and spatial information is mediated in part by the bZIP transcription factor FD, which is already expressed at the shoot apex before floral induction.
Journal ArticleDOI

H2A.Z-Containing Nucleosomes Mediate the Thermosensory Response in Arabidopsis

TL;DR: The results show that H2A.Z-containing nucleosomes provide thermosensory information that is used to coordinate the ambient temperature transcriptome, indicating a direct mechanism for the perception of temperature through DNA-nucleosome fluctuations.
Journal ArticleDOI

The dynamic genome of Hydra

Jarrod Chapman, +81 more
- 25 Mar 2010 - 
TL;DR: Comparisons of the Hydra genome to the genomes of other animals shed light on the evolution of epithelia, contractile tissues, developmentally regulated transcription factors, the Spemann–Mangold organizer, pluripotency genes and the neuromuscular junction.
Journal ArticleDOI

FT Protein Acts as a Long-Range Signal in Arabidopsis

TL;DR: In this paper, it was shown that FT is the only known protein that serves as a long-range developmental signal in plants, and uncoupled FT protein movement from its biological function to show that FT protein is the mobile signal that travels from the leaves to the apex.
Journal ArticleDOI

Phytochromes function as thermosensors in Arabidopsis

TL;DR: A major thermosensory role for the phytochromes (red light receptors) during the night is described, and it is found that phy tochrome B directly associates with the promoters of key target genes in a temperature-dependent manner.
