Whole-transcriptome dynamics reveal distinct regulatory networks during sugar beet vernalization
A time-course whole-transcriptome analysis across five vernalization stages and identified 3,598 mRNAs that were specifically altered only after sufficient cold exposure suggest a new regulatory framework for vernalization in a non-model crop and may provide a foundation for breeding bolting-tolerant varieties.
