Breeding of Flowering Time
INQUIRYIntroductions
Flowering time is an important trait that affects the ornamentation of flowers. Shortening the flowering cycle and prolonging the flowering period are of great importance for flower breeding. Developing early flowering varieties or varieties that can flower under prolonged conditions is an important goal of ornamental flower breeding.
Lifeasible can use gene editing technology to alter the expression of key flowering-related genes, thereby helping customers to produce flower varieties that meet market demand.
How We Help
The regulation of the flowering process in flowers is very complex, is controlled by endogenous factors and exogenous environmental factors. The FLOWERING LOCUS T (FT)/TERMINAL FLOWER1-like (TFL1) genes possess opposite effects of promoting and always flowering. FT promotes flowering, and TFL1 inhibits flowering. We are able to use FE/TFL1 as a breeding target for flower flowering time and regulate the flowering genetic network through a series of molecular breeding techniques.
- We are able to use the MADS-box transcription factor FLOWERING LOCUS C (FLC) is used as a repressor to suppress FT expression and inhibit flowering.
- We are able to regulate FT transcription by regulating the Polycomb Group (PcG) pathway, which affects flowering time.
- We are able to control FT expression through post-transcriptional and post-translational regulation techniques, thus altering flowering time.

What We Provide
CRISPR/Cas9 Mediated Genome Engineering for Improvement of Flowering Time
We are able to use CRISPR/Cas9 and Agrobacterium-mediated transformation to introduce exogenous DNA into ornamental flowers, and CRISPR/Cas9 was able to target specific genes to achieve improved flowering time.
Grafting Method to Shorten the Time of Flowering
We are able to use the FT genetically modified plants as rootstocks, thereby shortening the flowering cycle of the flowers used as scions.
Pollen Tubing Method for Improvement Flowering Time
We are able to use the pollen pipeline to bring exogenous gene fragments into the embryo sac and germ cells, enabling the transfer of exogenous genes and the breeding of early flowering flowers.
Breeding of flowering time is complex and customer needs vary widely. You can tell us what you need by filling out the online form or contacting us directly, and we look forward to working with you to create new ornamental flowers.
Lifeasible provides the most comprehensive and efficient solutions for breeding ornamental flowers. We are committed to helping our customers cultivate more ornamental flowers. We look forward to providing you with the most professional and efficient service to meet your individual needs. If you are interested in our services or have any further questions, please do not hesitate to contact us.
