High impact information on TSF

  • These observations suggest that TSF is a direct regulatory target of CO. tsf mutation delayed flowering in SD conditions and enhanced the phenotype of ft in both LD and SD conditions [1].
  • TSF expression was induced rapidly upon activation of CONSTANS (CO) [1].
  • Consistently, TSF overexpression caused a precocious flowering phenotype independent of photoperiods or CO, or FLC [1].
  • The mRNA levels of TSF and FT showed similar patterns of diurnal oscillation and response to photoperiods: an evening peak, higher levels in long day (LD) than in short day (SD) conditions, and immediate up-regulation upon day-length extension [1].
