WHOLE PLANT, ENVIRONMENTAL, AND STRESS PHYSIOLOGY

Effect of Vernalization, Photoperiod, and Light Quality on the Flowering Phenotype of Arabidopsis Plants Containing the FRIGIDA Gene

I. Lee and R. M. Amasino
Department of Biochemistry, 420 Henry Mall, University of Wisconsin, Madison, Wisconsin 53706-1569

We have compared the flowering response to vernalization, photoperiod, and far-red (FR) light of the Columbia (Col) and Landsberg erecta (Ler) ecotypes of Arabidopsis into which the flowering-time locus FRIGIDA (FRI) has been introgressed with that of the wild types Col, Ler, and San Feliu-2 (Sf-2). In the early-flowering parental ecotypes, Col and Ler, a large decrease in flowering time in response to vernalization was observed only under short-day conditions. However, Sf-2 and the Ler and Col genotypes containing FRI showed a strong response to vernalization when grown in either long days or short days. Although vernalization reduced the responsiveness to photoperiod, plants vernalized for more than 80 d still showed a slight photoperiod response. The effect of FRI on flowering was eliminated by 30 to 40 d of vernalization; subsequently, the response to vernalization in both long days and short days was the same in Col and Ler with or without FRI. FR-light enrichment accelerated flowering in all ecotypes and introgressed lines. However, the FR-light effect was most conspicuous in the FRI-containing plants. Saturation of the vernalization effect eliminated the effect of FR light on flowering, although vernalization did not eliminate the increase of petiole length in FR light.
