Florogenesis and Female Gametophyte Development in <i>Allium cepa</i> L. cv. Krishnapuram

Abstract: Florogenesis is one of the most complicated and interesting processes in the nature. This process involves developmental, physiological and molecular events leading to transformation from vegetative to reproductive phase for optimal seed production and the continuation of species. The basic knowledge about flowering processes, male and female sexual systems support basic and applied research and breeding programs. Most of the onion varieties from India are short day varieties, more diverse than other exotic ge… Show more

“…In addition, the number of flowered plants ranged from around 0% for a few accessions (IPT022, IPT215, and IPT216) to more than 70% of flowered plants in the majority of accessions. The lack of uniform flowering can be attributed to the dependence of florogenesis on both genetic and environmental factors [ 2 , 22 , 31 , 32 ]. The flowering function in shallots of the A. cepa Aggregatum group has been associated with shLFY genes based on which shallot genotypes occur as either a naturally flowering type (abundant, obligate flowering), inducible flowering type (by favorable environmental factors) or non-flowering genotypes [ 33 ].…”
