Flowering & PollinationWhat does MiFT expression tell researchers about mango flowering?
MiFT refers to mango genes related to FLOWERING LOCUS T, a component of flowering regulation. Experiments have associated expression in leaves with inductive conditions and subsequent flowering. This helps investigate biological signaling, but a gene-expression measurement is not a nursery bloom guarantee. Its interpretation depends on sampled tissue, tree development, crop history, and the experimental conditions rather than the gene name alone.
