Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: The transition from vegetative to reproductive stages marks a major milestone in plant development. It is clear that global change factors (e.g., increasing [CO(2)] and temperature) have already had and will continue to have a large impact on plant flowering times in the future. Increasing atmospheric [CO(2)] has recently been shown to affect flowering time, and may produce even greater responses than...
