Putative sugarcane FT/TFL1 genes delay flowering time and alter reproductive architecture in Arabidopsis
Agriculturally important grasses such as rice, maize and sugarcane are evolutionarily distant from Arabidopsis, yet some components of the floral induction process are highly conserved. Flowering in sugarcane is an important factor that negatively affects cane yield and reduces sugar/ethanol produc...
