In addition to the ornamental value T. fournieri is a useful experimental model plant for researchers especially suitable for research of basic physiological phenomena because of its short life cycle responding quickly to the change of culture medium. T. fournieri is also used as a source of materials for in vitro studies such as gene transfer somatic mutation micropropagation in vitro flower production. Although there are some researches on flowering of T. fournieri in vitro studying the role of some factors such as plant growth regulators carbon sources mineral nutrient media polyamine amino acids in the flowering process is necessary to explain more clearly the flowering mechanism of this plant. Plant Cell tissue culture and molecular biology techniques have contributed to the knowledge of flowering processes in plants. So far besides A. thaliana a model plant that has been used extensively for .
