Other claims from this paper (7)
- Observation Bolting and floral transition coupling changed under non-optimal flowering conditions.
- Intervention effect Early flowering mutations restored coupling between the transitions.
- Observation Under non-optimal photoperiods, the floral node preceded the bolting node by a few days.
- Association In early flowering mutants, altered long-day definitions for two leaf responses were frequently coupled and linked to similar photomorphogenetic defects.
- Association In early flowering mutants, altered short-day definitions for the two leaf responses were often opposite and linked to different photomorphogenetic and circadian phenotypes.
- Mechanism The authors concluded that distinct signalling pathways regulate the two transitions under non-optimal conditions.
- Recommendation The authors proposed bolting as a robust indicator of reproductive phase change, especially when flowering progression is not optimal.
