Abstract excerpt
Resource allocation is a major determinant of plant fitness and is influenced by external as well as internal stimuli. We have investigated the effect of cell wall invertase activity on the transition from vegetative to reproductive growth, inflorescence architecture, and reproductive output, i.e. seed production, in the model plant Arabidopsis thaliana by expressing a cell wall invertase under a...
