Evolution of VRN-1 homoeologous loci in allopolyploids of Triticum and their diploid precursors
Abstract Background The key gene in genetic system controlling the duration of the vegetative period in cereals is the VRN1 gene, whose product under the influence of low temperature (vernalization) promotes the transition of the apical meristem cells into a competent state for the development of ge...
