Abstract

The molecular basis for variation in vernalization in Arabidopsis natural accessions adapted to different climates is investigated. The results have shown that the variation in epigenetic silencing of the floral repressor gene FLOWERING LOCUS C (FLC) have contributed to Arabidopsis adaptation.
