Abstract excerpt
Cucumber is an important vegetable with indeterminate growth habit which is beneficial to its yield. In this study, we cloned the TFL1 homolog CsTFL1b in cucumber. CsTFL1b shares highly sequence similarity to TFL1 from Arabidopsis and has conservative histidine amino acid residue which is necessary for TFL1 function. However, phylogenetic analysis suggested that cucurbits TFL1s (CsTFL1b of cucumber and CmTFL1 of...
