VERNALIZATION & FLOWERING+PYQS

FLC gene encodes a:

That points to C: MADS-box protein. Compared with the other options, MADS-box protein is the one that correctly describes the VERNALIZATION & FLOWERING concept. The wrong ones are A) bZIP protein; B) MYB protein; D) Homeobox protein. If you’re stuck, eliminate anything that contradicts a basic fact you already know for this topic.

ABCE & ABCDE MODEL +Synapdrgon flowering

Which of the following is NOT a MADS-box gene?

D fits best: AP2. Keep the ABCE & ABCDE MODEL +Synapdrgon flowering basics straight and AP2 stands out as the precise answer. Avoid: A) AG; B) PI; C) AP3. Light and flowering items often hinge on which photoreceptor or day-length rule is in play.

ABCE & ABCDE MODEL +Synapdrgon flowering

Most floral organ identity genes belongs to which gene family?

Answer: B) MADS-box. For ABCE & ABCDE MODEL +Synapdrgon flowering, remember the key idea and you’ll land on this option; the distractors usually swap cause and effect or confuse similar terms. Avoid: A) Homeobox; C) bHLH; D) MYB. Name the process first, then pick the option that describes it — don’t reverse cause and effect.
