• Regulation of flowering time: all roads lead to Rome (2011, background): “Two important regulators of FLC, VERNALIZATION1 (VRN1) and VERNALIZATION2 (VRN2), were identified from the screen [94, 95].”
• Vernalization in Arabidopsis thaliana is mediated by the PHD finger protein VIN3 (2004, background): “In this screen we found additional alleles of vernalization 1 and 2 ( vrn1 and vrn2 ); these genes are necessary to maintain the repressed state of FLC after vernalizatio”
• Vernalization requires epigenetic silencing of FLC by histone methylation (2004, background): “This lowered FLC expression is maintained through subsequent development by the activity of VERNALIZATION ( VRN ) gene”
• Multiple Pathways in the Decision to Flower: Enabling, Promoting, and Resetting (2004, background): “FLC decreased in the cold, but instead of remaining low during subsequent development in warm temperatures, FLC levels increased in vrn1 and vrn2 mutants (Gendall et al., 2001; Levy et al., 2002).”
• Role of SVP in the control of flowering time by ambient temperature in Arabidopsis. (2007, background): “1999) is central to the vernalization process (Sung and Amasino 2005), and this silencing has been attributed to the activities of the VERNALIZATION1 (VRN1), VERNALIZATION2 (VRN2), and VERNALIZATION INSENSITIVE3 (VIN3) genes (Gendall et al. 2001; Levy et al. 2002; Sung and Amasino 2004).”
• Control of flowering time: interacting pathways as a basis for diversity. (2002, background): “This suggests that the role of VRN2 is not the reduction of FLC expression in response to low temperatures, but the maintenance of the vernalized state (Gendall et al., 2001).”
• The timing of developmental transitions in plants. (2006, background): “VERNALIZATION2 (VRN2) is a homolog of the Drosophila Polycomb group gene Su(Z)12 (Birve et al., 2001; Gendall et al., 2001).”
• Seasonal and developmental timing of flowering. (2010, background): “The first ‘vernalization gene’ reported was VERNALIZATION 2 (VRN2), which encodes an Arabidopsis homolog of the Drosophila protein SUPPRESSOR OF ZESTE 12 (Gendall et al., 2001).”
