| Zusammenfassung: | Copyright © 2020. Published by Elsevier B.V. Flowering time is an important agronomic trait that greatly influences plant architecture and grain yield in cereal crops. The present study identified a light-regulated gene, TaLWD1L-A, from hexaploid wheat that encodes a WD40 domain-containing protein. TaLWD1L-A was localized in the nucleus. Phenotypic analysis demonstrated that TaLWD1L-A overexpression in transgenic wheat led to an obvious early flowering phenotype. Upregulation of the floral activator gene TaFT1 caused the early flowering phenotype in transgenic wheat plants. TaLWD1L-A also affected the expression of circadian clock genes, including TaTOC1, TaLHY, TaPRR59, TaPRR73 and TaPRR95, and indirectly regulated the expression of the TaFT1 in transgenic plants by affecting the expression of vernalization-related genes TaVRN1 and TaVRN2 and photoperiod-related genes TaPpd-1 and TaGI. The early flowering phenotype in TaLWD1L-A-overexpressing transgenic lines led to a relatively shorter phenotype and yield reduction. Our results revealed that TaLWD1L-A affected the expression of circadian clock-related genes and played an important role in wheat flowering regulation by influencing the expression of genes related to vernalization and photoperiod pathways |
