  • Title: Regulation of developmental transitions.
    Author: Chuck G, Hake S.
    Journal: Curr Opin Plant Biol; 2005 Feb; 8(1):67-70. PubMed ID: 15653402.
    Abstract:
    Plants undergo a series of profound developmental changes throughout their lifetimes in response to both external environmental factors and internal intrinsic ones. When these changes are abrupt and dramatic, the process is referred to as phase change. Recently, several genes have been discovered that play a role in these developmental transitions. Their sequence and expression patterns shed new light on the mechanisms of phase change, and provide a link between the external and internal factors that control them. Examples of these transitions include changes from juvenile to adult leaf formation, vegetative to inflorescence meristem development, and inflorescence to floral meristem initiation.
