Genes that regulate flowering time, flowering time adjustment method and transformed plants take advantage of this

摘要

The present invention relates to a flowering-time regulator isolated from rice, which is selected from OsCOL4, OsMADS51, OsMADS56, OsMADS14, OsTRX1, OsVIN2 , and OsCOL8 , a DNA construct containing the regulator, a transgenic plant, a part thereof, and plant cell transformed with the DNA construct, and method to control flowering-time using the regulator. In the present invention, the flowering-time and/or stem elongation can be controlled, and thereby, various agricultural benefits obtained.
