Abstract:
... The photoperiod is a day-length-dependent seasonal change of physiological or developmental activities, such as flowering, in many plant species. Polygonum tinctorium (P. tinctorium) is an important industrial crop producing indigo blue dyes, and indican is an important substance as a precursor of indigo. Here, we report the day-length-dependent responses of growth, flowering, and indican synthesi ...
