Abstract excerpt
KEY MESSAGE: Nonsense-mediated mRNA decay (NMD)-mediated degradation of BrFLC2 transcripts is the main cause of rapid flowering of oilseed-type B. rapa 'LP08' plants. Many Brassica species require vernalization (long-term winter-like cooling) for transition to the reproductive stage. In the past several decades, scientific efforts have been made to discern the molecular mechanisms underlying vernalization in many...
