Appears in the following schemes

Photoperiod pathway

Protein function

Encodes a phloem-specific MYB transcription factor, which is required for phloem identity.

Phenotype

Single mutant:
fe single mutant is late flowering under LD conditions. [Abe et al., 2015][Koornneef et al., 1991]

Remarks:
fe single mutant shows lower FT expression levels and attenuated long-distance transport of FT. [Abe et al., 2015]

Remarks:
The flowering time acceleration by a SD to LD shift is altered in the fe mutant. [Abe et al., 2015]

Function:
Transcription factor required for phloem identity. Has a dual role both in promoting phloem differentiation and in repressing xylem differentiation during vascular development. Regulates the expression of the transcription factor NAC045 (AC A4VCM0). [Data from UniProt]
