Starting this month off with a wonderful post from Gwendolyn Kirschner & @somssich!
They describe the hunt for a mobile, flower-inducing signal: the ‘Florigen’ (which had already started in 1863!).
This #preLight covers a collaborative #preprint from the Wicke and the Noll labs. They demonstrate host-independent flowering of Cuscuta spp. (Dodder plants) which reignites the search for the #Florigen.
