A mutant flowering induction gene, a transformed plant having the mutant flowering inducing gene, and a flowering control method using the mutant flowering inducing gene.
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a transformed plant in which a flowering inducing ability is gradually accelerated as compared with a conventionally known flowering inducing gene. A mutant flowering induction gene encoding a protein consisting of an amino acid sequence in which tyrosine corresponding to the 85th tyrosine in an amino acid sequence consisting of a specific sequence is replaced with another amino acid.
