In flowering plants, DNA–FD–14-3-3 recruits FT to the florigen activation complex both through DNA–FT interactions and by reducing liquid phase condensation of FD protein, which promotes dimerization, leading to FT recruitment.

A distinct subset of leaf companion cells expresses high levels of the florigen gene, and the same cells also produce other possible mobile floral regulators and small proteins.

暖かくなり、日の時間が長くなるにつれて、植物の茎が伸び、そして花を咲かせます🌺暖かくなると当たり前に目にする光景ですが、茎が伸びることと花が咲くことが同じタイミングで起こるのか、実は分かっていないとか… 「植物が季節を感じて、茎の伸長も花芽形成もどちらも促進させるモノを見つけました。」 そう教えてくれたのは名古屋大学の高木 紘 さん（高等研究院/生物機能開発利用研究センター YLC特任助教）で...
