Direct links between the vernalization response and other key traits of cereal crops

Transcription of the ​VERNALIZATION1 gene (​VRN1) is induced by prolonged cold (vernalization) to trigger flowering of cereal crops, such as wheat and barley. ​VRN1 encodes a MADS box transcription factor that promotes flowering by regulating the expression of other genes. Here we use transcriptome...
