An ortholog of LEAFY in Jatropha curcas regulates flowering time and floral organ development

Jatropha curcas seeds are an excellent biofuel feedstock, but seed yields of Jatropha are limited by its poor flowering and fruiting ability. Thus, identifying genes controlling flowering is critical for genetic improvement of seed yield. We isolated the JcLFY , a Jatropha ortholog of Arabidopsis th...
