TRAPPED PARTICLES. “In the inner magnetosphere, particles can become trapped on closed orbits drifting around the Earth guided by the quasi-dipolar intrinsic field. The ring current located roughly at 4–6 RE radial distance encircles the Earth with highly variable intensity also modulated by the level of geomagnetic activity.” https://link.springer.com/article/10.12942/lrsp-2007-1 View in LinkedIn

CHAOTIC CORE. “The inner part of the plasma sheet with its weak field and at times intense cross-tail current sheet is highly variable with bursts of fast flows, magnetic reconnection, and large-scale reconfiguration events.” https://link.springer.com/article/10.12942/lrsp-2007-1 View in LinkedIn

MAG FIELD SHAPE. “The plasma sheet separating the northern and southern lobes hosts densities of the order of 1 cm−3 and partially very low magnetic field values reaching only a few nT. Thus, while the plasma beta (ratio of plasma and magnetic pressures, β = 2 μ0p/B2) is very low in the tail lobes, it generally exceeds unity at the center of the field reversal region.” https://link.springer.com/article/10.12942/lrsp-2007-1 View in LinkedIn

FLORAL MERISTEM IDENTITY GENES. “We will describe the central role that AP1 plays in the transition from floral induction to flower formation by acting as a switch between these two developmental programs and constituting a hub in the corresponding network of regulatory genes.” https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0168952510001873 View in LinkedIn

GENERATIVE NODES. “Floral meristem identity genes code for transcription factors that are conserved across plant species and include Arabidopsis APETALA1 (AP1) (and paralogs) and LEAFY (LFY).” https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0168952510001873 View in LinkedIn

FLOWERING TIME PATHWAYS. “Ultimately, all of these pathways converge on so-called floral meristem identity genes, which act by directing the meristems (or primordia) that form on the flanks of the inflorescence meristem to develop into flowers.” https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0168952510001873 View in LinkedIn

WELL STUDIED. “A large number of genes have been characterized as flowering time regulators, and several recent reviews have provided detailed descriptions of flowering time pathways (see Figure 1).” https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0168952510001873 View in LinkedIn

FLORAL NETWORK. “Thus, all these regulators of the floral transition form a small network with multiple interactions among themselves (and, undoubtedly, additional interactions still remain to be discovered), which is ultimately resolved in the upregulation of floral meristem identity genes.” https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0168952510001873 View in LinkedIn

PATH TO THE NEXT GENERATION. “The responses to various external and internal conditions are integrated by a complex gene regulatory network that controls this transition. Consequently, the regulation of flowering time has been a major adaptive trait during plant evolution and domestication.” https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0168952510001873 View in LinkedIn
