e0“Rapid dark flowering of late-flowering ecotypes was not an effect of darkness but the result of the interaction between dark and sucrose availability at the aerial part of the plant, since sucrose also had an effect when plants were grown in the light.”

Other claims from this paper (9)
- Intervention effect Arabidopsis developed and flowered in complete darkness on vertical solid agar dishes with sucrose.
- Observation All tested Arabidopsis ecotypes developed into etiolated plants and flowered after producing leaves under these conditions.
- Observation Dark-grown Arabidopsis resembled phytochrome-deficient mutants.
- Observation Dark-grown Arabidopsis differed from det and cop mutants.
- Observation Early and late flowering ecotypes flowered with a similar leaf number in darkness.
- Intervention effect Sucrose also affected Arabidopsis flowering in the light.
- Observation Gibberellin deficient and insensitive mutants were delayed in flower initiation in darkness.
- Intervention effect Dark growth rescued late flowering in mutants of autonomous and long day dependent pathways.
- Intervention effect Sucrose did not rescue late flowering of ft and fwa mutants in darkness or light.
