and Flowering Time Studies

its paralog TWIN SISTER OF FT, act as the long-distance Foral stimulus, or at least that they are part of it in diverse plant species, has attracted much attention in recent years. Studies to understand the physiological and molecular appa-ratuses that integrate spatial and temporal signals to regu-late developmental transitions in plants have occupied countless scientists and have resulted in an unmanageably large amount of research data. Analysis of these data has helped to identify multiple systemic florigenic and antiflori-genic regulators. This study gives an overview of the recent research on gene products, phytohormones and other me-tabolites that have been demonstrated to have florigenic or antiflorigenic functions in plants
