Floral development is the biological process by which plants transition their growing tissues from vegetative growth to produce flowers and reproductive structures. This is fundamental to plant science because flowers are essential for sexual reproduction, seed and fruit formation, and directly impact plant survival and agricultural productivity. Understanding the genetic and molecular mechanisms controlling floral development reveals evolutionary insights and enables improvements in crop breeding, yield, and quality.
