TLDR
The influence of temperature, vernalization duration and photoperiods on the leaf number and beginning of bolting of Chinese cabbage was tested in growth chambers and an increasing effect of vernAlization was indicated by decreasing Leaf number and premature bolting.

A naturally occurring long insertion in the first intron in the Brassica rapa FLC2 gene causes delayed bolting

TL;DR: It is suggested that a naturally occurring large insertion in the first intron resulted in weak repression of BrFLC2 and BrFLc3 during cold exposure and therefore explains the extremely late bolting of the Tsukena No. 2 cultivar.
Journal ArticleDOI

Identification and mapping of a quantitative trait locus controlling extreme late bolting in Chinese cabbage (Brassica rapa L. ssp. pekinensis syn. campestris L.) using bulked segregant analysis.

TL;DR: DNA markers linked to a locus controlling an extreme late bolting trait, which was originally found in a local cultivar of a non-heading leafy vegetable,‘Osaka Shirona Bansei’, were identified using bulked segregant analysis.
Journal ArticleDOI

Manipulation of bolting and flowering in celery (Apium graveolens L. var. dulce). II. Juvenility.

TL;DR: After germination, a juvenile phase of development was apparent in cvs New Dwarf White and Celebrity and the plants became competent to perceive chilling as a vernalization stimulus when they had initiated 17 leaves including leaf primordia in cv.

Greenhouse crops: A review

TL;DR: This paper reviews key features of selected greenhouse crops, assesses the impact of changing environment on crop performance, and examines potential avenues for crop manipulation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Identification of QTLs with additive, epistatic, and QTL × environment interaction effects for the bolting trait in Brassica rapa L.

TL;DR: The results will contribute to an understanding of the genetic control of bolting in B. rapa, and enable breeders to determine the appropriate selection strategy with respect to bolts in breeding programs.

On the movement and distribution of calcium in white cabbage in dependence of the water status

TL;DR: In this article, the uptake and distribution of Ca in white cabbage have been measured under controlled climatic conditions, and the uptake of Ca has been determined by continuous β-intensity measurements of45Ca simultaneously at an outer transpiring leaf and at an inner head leaf.

Seed Germination and Bolting in Red Beet as Affected by Parent Plant Environment

TL;DR: Low temperature and long day regimes applied during seed development and maturation of red beet increased the proportion of empty seed balls and reduced the germination ability of normally developed seeds and a significant reduction of the root tuber yield was associated with these effects.
Journal ArticleDOI

Recent developments in vernalization

TL;DR: Vernalization is primarily discussed from an eco-physiological viewpoint, serving as a basis for understanding the mechanism, and Gibberellins play an important part in vernalization.
