Mechanistic model of temperature influence on flowering through whole-plant accumulation of FT

SynthSys is the University of Edinburgh's research organisation in interdisciplinary, Synthetic and Systems Biology, founded in 2012 as the successor to the Centre for Systems Biology at Edinburgh (CSBE).

Research programme in the Takato Imaizumi lab, with multiple collaborators. Published in Song et al. Nature Plants 2018; Kinmonth-Schultz et al., in silico Plant 2019.

Project to test effects of temperature cycles on expression of Arabidopsis florigen gene FT, and whether these are mediated by temperature-dependent leaf development or temperature-specific FT expression, or both. Re-used and extended Arabidopsis Framework Model v1 to address this question. Led by Hannah Kinmonth-Schultz in Kim and Imaizumi labs, collaborating with Millar lab.
