Abstract
This invention relates to a nucleic acid molecule encoding the catalytic subunit of a protein phosphatase (PP2AC-JD) that belongs to the PP2A family. The PP2AC-JD interacts with the phytochrome A, a primary photoreceptor in the light signal transduction in plants, in the photoperiodic control of flowering. The present invention also provides the methods and processes for generating transgenic higher plants transformed with said nucleic acid molecule to engineer flowing time of economically important crop plants.
