Major flowering time gene, flowering locus C, regulates seed germination in Arabidopsis thaliana.

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America - 14 Jul 2009

Abstract excerpt

Flowering locus C (FLC) is a major regulator of flowering responses to seasonal environmental factors. Here, we document that FLC also regulates another major life-history transition-seed germination, and that natural variation at the FLC locus and in FLC expression is associated with natural variation in temperature-dependent germination. FLC-mediated germination acts through additional genes in the flowering...
