Abstract

Abstract: In higher plants, flowering transition represents a crucial node from the vegetative stage to the reproductive stage in plant life cycle. This process is controlled by both genetic and environmental factors. The molecular regulating mechanisms of flowering pathways have been studied extensively in Arabidopsis thaliana and several other flowering plants. There are six pathways involved in flowering control, including autonomous pathway, vernalization pathway, photoperiod pathway, gibberellin pathway, carbohydrates induction, and repression pathway. This review summarizes recent progresses on regulating mechanism of flowering transition of anthophyta, and lays the foundation for future floral control of physiology and molecular biology research.

Key words: higher plants, flowering transition, molecular regulation, mechanism
