Light and photoperiod regulate the floral transition in plants. CONSTANS is a transcription factor that is posttranslational regulated by phytochrome B in the morning and stabilized by PHYA and cryptochromes 1/2 in the evening. CO induces FT expression, which travels to the apical meristem and binds to FD to regulate flowering genes. Our research shows that light and PHYB positively regulate XAANTAL1 and other flowering genes in the shoot apices. Furthermore, XAL1 functions independently of FD or PIF4 to induce flowering at higher temperatures, even under long days. This leads us to propose that light and temperature influence the floral network at the meristem level partially independent of leaf-generated signals.
Light and photoperiod are environmental signals that regulate flowering transition. In plants like Arabidopsis thaliana, this regulation relies on CONSTANS, a transcription factor that is negatively posttranslational regulated by phytochrome B during the morning, while it is stabilized by PHYA and cryptochromes 1/2 at the end of daylight hours. CO induces the expression of FT, whose protein travels from the leaves to the apical meristem, where it binds to FD to regulate some flowering genes. Although PHYB delays flowering, we show that light and PHYB positively regulate XAANTAL1 and other flowering genes in the shoot apices. Also, the genetic data indicate that XAL1 and FD participate in the same signaling pathway in flowering promotion when plants are grown under a long-day photoperiod at 22 & DEG;C. By contrast, XAL1 functions independently of FD or PIF4 to induce flowering at higher temperatures (27 & DEG;C), even under long days. Furthermore, XAL1 directly binds to FD, SOC1, LFY, and AP1 promoters. Our findings lead us to propose that light and temperature influence the floral network at the meristem level in a partially independent way of the signaling generated from the leaves.
