摘要
Dear Editor, As one of the most important developmental traits, flow-ering time has been extensively investigated in the long-day plant Arabidopsis. Multiple factors are involved, including photoperiod and/or temperature （Amasino, 2010）. Flowering locus T （FT） is known to be an important integrator of dif-ferent flowering pathways （Taoka et al., 2011）. Genes of the CONSTANS （CO） family also play key roles in regulating flow-ering time. The CO protein consists of a zinc finger and a CCT domain shared by a group of plant-specific transcription fac-tors that regulate photoperiodic flowering response and cir-cadian rhythms in Arabidopsis.
