SEP3 ternary complexes that, based on expression patterns of the genes encoding the involved proteins, might be formed in the shoot apical meristem (SAM) at the moment of the phase switch between vegetative and generative development. Taking into account known functions for some of these proteins, the complexes have been categorized in two classes; one for complexes supposed to be involved in regulating the timing of flowering, and one for complexes that might function in negative auto-regulatory loops. Our hypothesis is that complexes from this latter group are essential for the repression of the genes involved in timing of flowering in the floral organs.
