dc.description.abstractFlowering time in pea (Pisum sativum L.) is determined by genetically controlled responses to photoperiod and temperature. To investigate these responses, 11 lines homozygous for the flowering genes Lf, Sn, E, and Hr were grown under contrasting semi-controlled photothermal environments and the durations (d) from sowing to first flower (f) were recorded. The effects of the four genes were quantified using a two-plane photothermal model which linearly relates the rate of progress from sowing to flowering (1/f) with the mean pre-flowering values of temperature (T) and/or photoperiod (P), based on 1/f=a+bT (when P is longer than the critical photoperiod, P,) and 1/f=a'+b'T+c'P (when P<P-c). The main effect of Lf alleles was on temperature sensitivity (b) when P > P-c, which increased in the sequence Lf(d)<Lf<lf<lf(a). Gene Hr, when together with Sn, increased photoperiod sensitivity (c') and reduced the intercept (a') when P<P-c. Allele sn determined a single plane response to temperature alone (i.e. a day-neutral response), Gene E, when present with If Sn, increased 1/f in both the thermal (P>P-c) and photothermal (P less than or equal to P-c) domains, mainly by increasing a and b', respectively. Variations in the coefficients of the thermal and photothermal responses determined that the critical photoperiod varied with temperature in all photoperiod-sensitive genotypes. A common base temperature of 0.2 degrees C was determined amongst Day-Neutral Class genotypes (sn) and thermal time from sowing to flowering increased in the sequence If(a) < If <Lf < Lf(d). lntra-Class variations attributed to the Lf alleles were also detected in the Late (Sn hr) and Late High Response (Sn Hr) Classes. The linear photothermal model provided a sound basis for studying the quantitative effects of flowering genes in pea.
