Florigens (or flowering hormone) are proteins capable of inducing flowering time in angiosperms.[1] The prototypical florigen is encoded by the FT gene and its orthologs in Arabidopsis and other plants.[2] Florigens are produced in the leaves, and act in the shoot apical meristem of buds and growing tips.[3][4]
