Floral induction in tissue culture: a system for the analysis of LEAFY-dependent gene regulation

We have developed a versatile floral induction system that is based on ectopic overexpression of the transcription factor LEAFY (LFY) in callus. During shoot regeneration, flowers or floral organs are formed directly from root explants without prior formation of rosette leaves. Morphological and rep...
