Description OsFCA is a rice homologue of Arabidopsis FCA (At4g16280). Expression of OsFCA
mRNA is steady in the leaves and up-regulated in differentiating calli and young
spikelet of primary branch-differentiating stage, but decrease dramatically in
young spikelet of the pistil and stamen-differentiating stage. Overexpression of
OsFCA in Arabidopsis fca mutant partially rescues the late flowering phenotype.
Alternative splicing of OsFCA generats four different sizes of transcripts,
OsFCA shared several conserved domains with Arabidopsis FCA-gamma which encodes
the only FCA protein functioning in the flowering promotion.
