Changes in gene expression during flower formation were studied in the
long-day plant Sinapis alba. The day length dependence was exploited to
synchronize flower formation in a large population of mustard plants. After
an inductive light treatment, apices were harvested after different lengths
of time, and changes in gene expression were analyzed. Two major groups of
genes were identified whose expression was affected during flower
formation. Transcripts of the first group (group I) were present at low
concentration in the apex of noninduced plants. They began to accumulate
strongly after the end of the inductive light period. They reached a
maximum 2 days to 10 days after flower induction and then declined slowly.
Transcripts of the second group of genes (group II) could be detected for
the first time 10 days after flower induction. Within a very short time,
these transcripts accumulated dramatically and reached a maximum 15 days
after flower induction before beginning to decline. They dropped beyond the
limit of detection before the flower reached maturity.
