Alternative splicing of BrTFL2 resulted in early bolting in Chinese cabbage
Key Points
Early bolting was significantly associated with alternative splicing of BrTFL2 in Chinese cabbage, indicating its role in plant development.
Detailed expression analysis indicated that changes in BrTFL2 contribute to altered gene expression patterns linked to flowering time.
Analysis utilized genetic mapping alongside RNA sequencing to assess the effects of splicing on bolting timing across various Chinese cabbage varieties.
Results highlight the importance of understanding splicing variations for enhancing crop traits, with potential implications for agricultural practices.
