Global transcriptome analysis identifies genes regulated by FT in the leaf


ABSTRACT: Flowering of Arabidopsis thaliana is accelerated by several environmental cues, including exposure to long days. The photoperiod-dependent promotion of flowering involves the transcriptional induction of FLOWERING LOCUS T (FT) in the phloem of the leaf. FT encodes a mobile protein that is transported from the leaves to the shoot apical meristem, where it forms part of a regulatory complex that induces flowering. Whether FT also has biological functions in leaves of wild-type plants remains unclear. In order to address this issue, we first studied the leaf transcriptomic changes associated with its over expression in the companion cells of the phloem. To this end, transgenic A. thaliana plants that misexpress FT from the pGAS1 promoter in a ft-10 tsf-1 double mutant background were employed (pGAS1:FT ft-10 tsf-1). In these transgenic plants, the use of the pGAS1 promoter ensures that the FT transgene is expressed in phloem companion cells of the minor veins, recreating the spatial pattern of expression described for the native gene. In this studuy, the transcriptome of leaves of pGAS1:FT ft-10 tsf-1 transgenic plants was compared to that of ft-10 tsf-1 and Col-0 plants using Tiling Arrays.
