Natural variation of the RICE FLOWERING LOCUS T 1 contributes to flowering time divergence in rice.

In rice (Oryza sativa L.), there is a diversity in flowering time that is strictly genetically regulated. Some indica cultivars show extremely late flowering under long-day conditions, but little is known about the gene(s) involved. Here, we demonstrate that functional defects in the florigen gene R...
