Gene Details:

• Gene ID: TraesCS4B02G346700
• Gene Symbol: WSOC1-4B
• Gene Name: MIKC-type MADS-box
• Genome: Chinese_Spring1.0
• Species: Triticum aestivum

Functional Descriptions:

• In this study, we isolated a wheat ortholog of SOC1, wheat SOC1 (WSOC1), and investigated its relationship to WAP1 in the flowering pathway. WSOC1 is expressed in young spikes but preferentially expressed in leaves.
• WSOC1 is expressed in young spikes but preferentially expressed in leaves.
• WSOC1 functions as a flowering activator in Arabidopsis.
• WSOC1 expression is affected neither by vernalization nor photoperiod, whereas it is induced by gibberellin at the seedling stage.
• These findings indicate that WSOC1 acts in a pathway different from the WAP1-related vernalization and photoperiod pathways.
