Gene Details:
- Gene ID: FvH4_3g09870
- Gene Symbol: FveFT3
- Gene Name: FLOWERING LOCUS T 3
- Genome:
- Species: Fragaria vesca
Functional Descriptions:
- The FveFT2 florigen/FveTFL1 antiflorigen balance is critical for the control of seasonal flowering in strawberry while FveFT3 modulates axillary meristem fate and yield.
- We additionally show that FveFT3 is not a florigen but promotes plant branching when overexpressed, that is likely to be through changing axillary meristem fate, therefore resulting in a 3.5-fold increase in fruit yield at the expense of stolons.
- The closely related FveFT3, which is not expressed in the leaves, modulates branching, flower number and fruit yield, is likely to be through the modification of AXM fate.
- Overexpression of FveFT3 in F. vesca has a strong impact on plant architecture and fruit yield.
