Mechanism of AtCPL1 in Regulating Flowering of Arabidopsis

doi:10.11983/CBB14188

Abstract

Abstract: CTD-phosphatase-like 1 (CPL1), the RNA polymerase II, plays an important role in plant stress responses, ion absorption and floral induction by regulating the phosphorylation of RNA polymerase II. To study the mechanism of CPL1 involved in regulation of flowering, two AtCPL1 mutants, cpl1-3 and fry2-1, were used for observing differences in flowering phenotype. Deletion of AtCPL1 caused flowering delay in Arabidopsis under long-day conditions. Moreover, the expression of genes related to flowering regulatory pathways in cpl1-3 and fry2-1 mutants were analyzed by qRT-PCR. The expression of FT, FD, CO and miR172 was significantly upregulated in cpl1-3 and fry2-1 mutants, but that of miR156a, TOEs and SMZ was significantly downregulated. AtCPL1 may be involved in the regulation of flowering in Arabidopsis as a positive regulatory factor, perhaps by regulating the expression of miR156 and miR172, which affect the expression of flowering-related genes.
