Schematic of the flowering regulatory networks involved in the chrysanthemum photoperiod and GA pathways and the heat maps comparing MADS-box gene expression as well as GA pathway gene expression between normal and mutant capitula. (A) Schematic of the flowering regulatory networks involved in the Chrysanthemum morifolium photoperiod and GA pathways. Arrows indicate activation. Bars indicate repression. All homologs of the genes involved in the photoperiod pathway are listed in Additional file 11. (B) Heat maps comparing MADS-box gene expression between normal and mutant capitula in chrysanthemum. Columns and rows in the heat maps represent samples and genes, respectively. Sample names are provided below the heat maps. The color scale indicates gene expression fold-changes. Red and blue respectively reflect high and low expression levels. All homologs of the MADS-box genes are listed in Additional file 12. (C) Heat maps comparing GA pathway gene expression between normal and mutant capitula in chrysanthemum. Columns and rows in the heat maps represent samples and genes, respectively. Sample names are provided below the heat maps. The color scale indicates gene expression fold-changes. Red and blue respectively reflect high and low expression levels. All homologs of the genes involved in the GA pathway are listed in Additional file 13
