Hormonal Regulation and Stimulation Response of Jatropha curcas L. Homolog Overexpression on Tobacco Leaf Growth by Transcriptome Analysis.

ABSTRACT: The Flowering locus T (FT) gene encodes the florigen protein, which primarily regulates the flowering time in plants. Recent studies have shown that FT genes also significantly affect plant growth and development. The FT gene overexpression in plants promotes flowering and suppresses leaf and stem development. This study aimed to conduct a transcriptome analysis to investigate the multiple effects of Jatropha curcas L. homolog (JcFT) overexpression on leaf growth in tobacco plants. The findings revealed that JcFT overexpression affected various biological processes during leaf development, including plant hormone levels and signal transduction, lipid oxidation metabolism, terpenoid metabolism, and the jasmonic-acid-mediated signaling pathway
