This study identifies differentially expressed genes associated with flowering-time variation in coffee genotypes, linking them to hormonal regulation and floral development pathways.

The paper identifies a coffee TFL1 ortholog with alternate splicing that represses flowering in Arabidopsis, suggesting a role in asynchronous flowering in coffee.

This study investigates the phenology and floral regulatory pathways of hops in subtropical conditions, finding that reproductive transition is primarily controlled by endogenous factors rather than photoperiod.

The paper investigates the genomic composition and regulatory networks of Coffea arabica sub-genomes, finding that essential gene expression machinery is preferentially located in one sub-genome.
