Much is still unknown about the pathway of the FT hormone when it is activated by CO. As the CO-FT model is a highly conserved pathway, understanding how modifications to the CO protein could further enhance agricultural yield and commercial value. As climate change continues to threaten weather conditions and seasonal length, photoperiods may be altered. These alterations can significantly disrupt flowering periods which is why it is critical to understand the regulation pathway of Constans (CO). In the future, it may be necessary to genetically alter flowering periods to correlate to accommodate changing climates and seasonsonal length change to preserve ecological reproduction patterns. Rupturing the intricate ecological patterns can cause significant ramifications to the food chain and overall health of an ecosystem. o preserve ecological reproduction patterns.
