Organization of Mobile Flowering Signals in ICCV 96029 Chickpea Cultivar

Аннотация

ICCV 96029 is the earliest flowering chickpea cultivar. We analyzed the model of the gene network controlling floral transition and hypothesized that this chickpea cultivar is significantly different from other legumes in organization of mobile flowering signals related to the expression of the FT (FLOWERING LOCUS T) gene paralogs. Unlike pea and other legumes, that according to previously obtained data could demonstrate cross-regulation between FT-like genes and different nature of the associated flowering signals, the simulation results for chickpea suggest that the FT paralogs play additive roles in the promotion of flowering.
