The regulation of flowering time has been investigated for over two decades, with several molecular modules having been characterized, functioning in the photoperiod, vernalization, autonomous, aging, or phytohormone pathways. Although the upstream components of these flowering pathways differ among plant species, most endogenous and external cues are ultimately integrated to control a highly conserved protein, FLOWERING LOCUS T （FT）, to ensure that flowering is initiated at an appropriate time.展开更多

Turnip yellow mosaic virus （TYMV） is a positive-strand RNA virus that infects Arabidopsis thaliana and plant species in the Brassica genus and causes bright yellow mosaic symptoms （Morch et al., 1988; Skotnicki et al., 1992）.展开更多
