VDAC1 Negatively Regulates Floral Transition in <i>Arabidopsis thaliana</i>

Voltage-dependent anion channels (VDACs) are the most important proteins in mitochondria. They localize to the outer mitochondrial membrane and contribute to the metabolite transport between the mitochondria and cytoplasm, which aids plant growth regulation. Here, we report that <i>Arabidopsis...
