Term long-day photoperiodism, flowering ID (Ontology) GO:0048574 (Gene Ontology)
Definition A change from the vegetative to the reproductive phase as a result of detection of, or exposure to, a period of light that exceeds the critical day length. The critical day length varies between species. Although the term is long-day is used, most species actually respond to the duration of the night, so that the response will occur when a period of darkness falls short of the number of hours defined by 24 minus the critical day length.[ ISBN:0582015952 ISBN:0697037754 ISBN:0709408862 ]
Also Known As "long-day photoperiodic control of flowering" ; "long-day photoperiodic control of flowering time" ; "long-day photoperiodic control of inflorescence development" (for all, see Synonyms field below)
