Fig. 2From: Molecular markers based on sequence variation in BoFLC1.C9 for characterizing early- and late-flowering cabbage genotypesPictogram of intron 1 from Arabidopsis thaliana FLC (AtFLC) and sequence alignment of BoFLC1.C9 in the early-flowering line BN623. Red-colored (AtFLC region A) and green-colored (AtFLC region F) sequences are conserved in the inserted portion. Exons are shown in black. Intron 1 from AtFLC is partitioned to show the regulatory segments involved in various FLC activities [30]. Segments A and F are essential for down-regulation of the gene and other segments are maintained the regulatory system. Sixty-seven base pair-long segments inserted into intron 2 of BoFLC1.C9 are shown in red and green; + 1 indicates the start codon (ATG)Back to article page
