CLV3-CLV1 signaling governs flower primordia outgrowth across environmental temperatures

Trends Plant Sci. 2024 Apr;29(4):400-402. doi: 10.1016/j.tplants.2023.12.004. Epub 2023 Dec 14.

Abstract

The initiation and outgrowth of floral primordia are critical for flower formation and reproductive success; however, the underlying mechanisms are still unclear. Two reports (Jones et al.; John et al.) shed light on how CLV3-CLV1 signaling promoted flower primordia formation and outgrowth by regulating auxin biosynthesis under distinct environmental temperatures.

Keywords: CLV1; CLV3; auxin; flower primordia; temperature.
