Appears in the following schemes

General processes & autonomous pathway

Protein function

Encodes a homeodomain-containing transcription factor.

Phenotype

Overexpressor:
FWA overexpressor is late flowering under both SD and LD conditions. [Ikeda et al., 2007]

Remarks:
The first fwa mutant identified is dominant and its phenotype is the consequence of an increase in FWA expression, which was caused by epigenetic changes. FWA is not expressed in mature wild-type plants. [Koornneef et al., 1991][Soppe et al., 2000]

Function:
Probable transcription factor involved in the regulation of time of flowering through the photoperiod flowering pathway. May repress FT. [Data from UniProt]
