High impact information on FLD

Several of the identified components (FY, FVE, and FLD) are homologous to yeast and mammalian proteins with rather generic roles in gene regulation [1].
The additive phenotype observed in double mutants provides evidence to support that these two genes, FLD and CO, are not only involved in rosette-to-inflorescence transition but also involved in the flower formation [2].
Other components of the autonomous pathway, FVE and FLD, regulate FLC epigenetically [3].
