Study conclude that thermoperiodic control of floral transition is associated with modulation of the diurnal expression patterns of FT, with timing of temperature alteration being important rather than average daily temperature.
Title: Thermoperiodic Control of Floral Induction Involves Modulation of the Diurnal FLOWERING LOCUS T Expression Pattern.

Variation in shade-induced flowering in Arabidopsis thaliana results from FLOWERING LOCUS T allelic variation.
Title: Variation in shade-induced flowering in Arabidopsis thaliana results from FLOWERING LOCUS T allelic variation.

Here we provide strong support, in the form of genetic and biochemical analyses, that NF-YA, in complex with NF-YB/NF-YC proteins, can directly bind the distal CCAAT box in the FT promoter and are positive regulators of flowering in an FT-dependent manner.
Title: NUCLEAR FACTOR Y, Subunit A (NF-YA) Proteins Positively Regulate Flowering and Act Through FLOWERING LOCUS T.

Results indicate that the DELLA-CONSTANS (CO) cascade inhibits CO/FLOWERING LOCUS T (FT)-mediated flowering under LDs, which thus provide evidence to directly integrate gibberellin (GA) and photoperiod signaling to synergistically modulate flowering under long days (LDs).
Title: The DELLA-CONSTANS Transcription Factor Cascade Integrates Gibberellic Acid and Photoperiod Signaling to Regulate Flowering.

Results demonstrated that meristematic FT overexpression generates a phenotype with an early flowering independent of photoperiod when compared with wild type (WT) plants.
