CmbZIP19 inhibits lateral bud elongation via the brassinolide pathway in chrysanthemum.

Branching is the main factor that determines plant architecture and is closely related to plant adaptation to the environment. Cold stress can inhibit lateral bud elongation in plants, but the underlying mechanism is still unclear. Here, we report that the cold stress-induced bZIP family transcription factor CmbZIP19 inhibits lateral bud elongation in chrysanthemum.

CGD: a multi-omics database for genomic and biological research.

Asteraceae is the largest family of dicotyledons and includes and , two important genera of ornamental plants. The genus consists of more than 30 species and contains many economically important ornamental, medicinal, and industrial plants. To more effectively promote research, we constructed the CGD, a genome database containing a large amount of data and useful tools.

An ethylene-responsive transcription factor and a flowering locus KH domain homologue jointly modulate photoperiodic flowering in chrysanthemum.

The timely transition from vegetative to reproductive development is coordinated through the quantitative regulation of floral pathway genes in response to physiological and environmental cues. The function of ethylene-responsive element-binding protein (ERF) transcription factors in the regulation of flowering in chrysanthemum (Chrysanthemum morifolium Ramat.) is not well understood.

Physiological and Transcripts Analyses Reveal the Mechanism by Which Melatonin Alleviates Heat Stress in Chrysanthemum Seedlings.

Heat stress limits the growth and development of chrysanthemum seedlings. Although melatonin (MT) has been linked to the heat stress response in plants, research on the underlying molecular mechanisms is scarce. In this study, the regulatory networks of MT on heat stress in chrysanthemum seedlings were explored.
