SVP gene controlling flowering time of plants

Abstract

The present invention relates to SVP protein which controls the flowering time of plants originating from Arabidopsis, a gene encoding SVP protein, a recombinant vector comprising said gene, a plant transformed with said recombinant vector, a method of controlling flowering time of plants by using said gene, and a method of searching a protein or a gene which controls the flowering time of plantsby using said SVP protein or said gene encoding the same.

Description

Technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a gene for controlling the flowering time of plants and a method of using the gene to control the flowering time of plants. Specifically, the present invention relates to an SVP protein derived from Arabidopsis thaliana that controls the flowering time of plants, a gene encoding the SVP protein, a recombinant vector containing the gene, a plant transformed by the recombinant vector, and a plant controlled by the gene The method of flowering time, and the method of using the SVP protein or SVP protein encoding gene to search for the protein or gene that controls the flowering time of the plant. Background technique [0002] The flowering time of plants is usually affected by environmental conditions or determined by genes. Factors affecting the flowering time of plants include external environmental conditions (such as light and temperature) and internal conditions (such as growth signals, etc.). For Arabidopsis, it has lon...
