Multiple factors regulate flowering in Arabidopsis. FT mRNA is expressed in companion cells of the leaf vein in response to multiple signals, including day length, light quality, and temperature. FT moves in the phloem from leaves to the apical meristem. FT is unloaded from the phloem in the meristem and interacts with FD.

FT-FD complex activates multiple genes. Which of the following combination is correct?(SS)
