Flowering - Floral Induction(branch bud ----> flower bud)
• violets, roses, chrysanthemums
• Chailakhan 1920’s Russian
• Florigen• Amount of light
and photoperiods already known to be important.

Photoperiodismthe ability of the plant to respond to different
lengths of light treatment• W. W. Garner & H. A. Allard - U. S. Ag. Dept.
1918…
• Maryland Mammoth– large-leaved mutant– lack of flowering– greenhouse plants …various stages
• most flowered in early December!
• DAYLENGTH critical factor Short Day, Long Day, Day Neutral plants

Short Day Plants
• Flower only when day length is shorter than some critical value.– Pointsetta, cocklebur, soybean.. - qualitative
• will not flower without a critical photoperiod
– wheat, rye, .. - quantitative• will flower without a critical photoperiod but will
take longer

Long and Short Day Plants May Flower at the Same Time
• Henbane (11 hrs.), Cocklebur (15 hrs.)

PHOTOPERIODISM• Some plants need several days at the proper
daylength. Winter & Summer Solstices
![Page 9: Flowering - Floral Induction. Flowering - Floral Induction (branch bud ----> flower bud) violets, roses, chrysanthemums Chailakhan 1920s Russian Florigen](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062219/551a51255503463e778b54f3/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
PHOTOPERIODISM• K. Hamner (U of Cal.) and J. Bonner (CIT) 1938• Sensitive light receiving system (pigment) at work.
• Cocklebur:– 15 hrs of light/9 hrs dark = flowers– 15.5 hrs of light/8.5 hrs dark = no flowers
– 15 hrs of light/9 hrs dark with interrupted dark = no flowering
• (Dark period is more critical than light period for Floral Induction - initiation of floral primordia.)

PHOTOPERIODISM REDEFINED• K. Hamner (U of Cal.) and J. Bonner (CIT) 1938:
– Short Day Plants• uninterrupted darkness must be of a certain duration.
• (so much darkness or more)
– Long Day Plants• uninterrupted darkness must be less than a certain
maximum value.
• (so much darkness or less)
– Day Neutral Plants• Flowers at a certain level of maturity or in response to some
environmental factor other than the photoperiod.

Photomorphogenic Responses • H. A. Borthwick and S. B. Hendricks 1950’s US Ag
– Action spectra studies - flowering and others– Subjected plants to various wavelengths during dark
period ----> responses• All photomorphogenic responses studied had similar
responses …• Predicted: the photochrome pigment
– 2 forms - 1.) PR - red light absorbing form– 2.) PFr - Far-red light absorbing form
(Active Form)

Photomorphogenic Responses • Phytochrome is ubiquitous in plants - found in all
tissues. Has been isolated and purified.• Phycocyanin like

Photomorphogenic Responses • Phytochrome Action Spectra:

Photomorphogenic Responses
• Mechanism of Phytochrome Action:
• PR ---------------------------------------------> PFr
• Red Light
• PR <--------------------------------------------- PFr
• Far-red Light
• Half Life of PFr = 2.5 hours• (based on conformational changes in phytochrome)

Photomorphogenic Responses
• (3) Chromoproteins (chromatophore & apoprotein):– Phytochromes (5) PR & PFr
– Cryptochromes Blue & UV– Photochromes Blue & UV

Photomorphogenic Responses • Control of Gene Activation:• Actinomycin inhibits transcription & stops light responses

Photomorphogenic Responses

Photomorphogenic Responses
• Less etiolation with higher amount of PFr
• Chenopodium alba “lamb’s quarter”
![Page 25: Flowering - Floral Induction. Flowering - Floral Induction (branch bud ----> flower bud) violets, roses, chrysanthemums Chailakhan 1920s Russian Florigen](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062219/551a51255503463e778b54f3/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Bud Dormancy
• Wareing (1950’s) Fagus beech tree– initiated by short days– relieved by long days
– reception site: leaf bud scales
![Page 26: Flowering - Floral Induction. Flowering - Floral Induction (branch bud ----> flower bud) violets, roses, chrysanthemums Chailakhan 1920s Russian Florigen](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062219/551a51255503463e778b54f3/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Bud Dormancy• Initiation factors: photoperiod, lack of
water, cold treatment (vernalization).– ABA - increases during bud
dormancy– GA - decreases during
bud dormancy
– reception site: leaf bud scales
– GA:ABA ratio a factor
![Page 27: Flowering - Floral Induction. Flowering - Floral Induction (branch bud ----> flower bud) violets, roses, chrysanthemums Chailakhan 1920s Russian Florigen](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062219/551a51255503463e778b54f3/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Seed Dormancy• Hard Seed Coat
– prevents imbibition of water, gas exchange and growth
– helps maintain the “seed bank”
– Scarification• any treatment that breaks the
seed coat– MECHANICAL (INSECTS)
– ACID
– FIRE
![Page 28: Flowering - Floral Induction. Flowering - Floral Induction (branch bud ----> flower bud) violets, roses, chrysanthemums Chailakhan 1920s Russian Florigen](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062219/551a51255503463e778b54f3/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Seed Dormancy• Stratification
– cold treatment of seeds
• Ambient Factors:– 1.) temperature (near freezing, -2--> 7
degrees C)– 2.) time (7 --> 12 weeks …)
![Page 29: Flowering - Floral Induction. Flowering - Floral Induction (branch bud ----> flower bud) violets, roses, chrysanthemums Chailakhan 1920s Russian Florigen](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062219/551a51255503463e778b54f3/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
Dormancy• Lange 1950’s
• Hyoscyamous niger “henbane”– annual and biennial types– varied time and temperature of treatment for
biennial
– shorter vernalization, longer to flowering
![Page 30: Flowering - Floral Induction. Flowering - Floral Induction (branch bud ----> flower bud) violets, roses, chrysanthemums Chailakhan 1920s Russian Florigen](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062219/551a51255503463e778b54f3/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
Vernalization/Stratification
• Petkus Rye - long day plant 15 1/2 wks to flower– spring annual– winter annual
• also needs vernalization (and/or stratification)
• flowers in 7 1/2 wks with cold treatment
![Page 31: Flowering - Floral Induction. Flowering - Floral Induction (branch bud ----> flower bud) violets, roses, chrysanthemums Chailakhan 1920s Russian Florigen](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062219/551a51255503463e778b54f3/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
Vernalization/Stratification
• Petkus Rye - – winter annual
![Page 32: Flowering - Floral Induction. Flowering - Floral Induction (branch bud ----> flower bud) violets, roses, chrysanthemums Chailakhan 1920s Russian Florigen](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062219/551a51255503463e778b54f3/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
Deveralization/Destratification
• High temperatures (35 degrees C) are effective in devernalization/destratification if cold treatment is short.
