Journal ArticleDOI
Mutation in TERMINAL FLOWER1 Reverses the Photoperiodic Requirement for Flowering in the Wild Strawberry Fragaria vesca
Elli A. Koskela,Katriina Mouhu,Maria C. Albani,Takeshi Kurokura,Takeshi Kurokura,Marja Rantanen,Daniel J. Sargent,Nicholas H. Battey,George Coupland,Paula Elomaa,Timo Hytönen +10 more
TL;DR: It is suggested that this mechanism controls flowering within the perennial growth cycle in F. vesca and demonstrated that a change in a single gene reverses the photoperiodic requirements for flowering.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Fragaria vesca Homolog of SUPPRESSOR OF OVEREXPRESSION OF CONSTANS1 Represses Flowering and Promotes Vegetative Growth
TL;DR: It is proposed that Fv SOC1 is a signaling hub that regulates yearly cycles of vegetative and generative development through separate genetic pathways that plays a central role in the photoperiodic control of both generative and vegetative growth in strawberry.
Journal ArticleDOI
The regulation of seasonal flowering in the Rosaceae
TL;DR: The current state of flowering research in perennial plants of the rose family (Rosaceae) is reviewed and homologues of terminal flower1 (TFL1) are revealed to be major regulators of both the juvenile to adult, and the vegetative to reproductive transitions in various rosaceous species.
Journal ArticleDOI
Strawberry homologue of TERMINAL FLOWER1 integrates photoperiod and temperature signals to inhibit flowering
TL;DR: It is suggested that the observed effect of the photoperiod × temperature interaction on FvTFL1 mRNA expression may allow strawberry to induce flowers in correct time in different climates.
Journal ArticleDOI
Light quality regulates flowering in FvFT1/FvTFL1 dependent manner in the woodland strawberry Fragaria vesca.
Marja Rantanen,Takeshi Kurokura,Katriina Mouhu,Paulo Pinho,Eino Tetri,Liisa Halonen,Pauliina Palonen,Paula Elomaa,Timo Hytönen +8 more
TL;DR: The data highlights the central role of FvFT1 in the light quality dependent flower induction in the LD strawberry and demonstrates that FvTFL1 reverses not only photoperiodic requirements but also light quality effects on flower inductionIn the SD strawberry.
