1. A method of promoting bolting early and flowering of early by an Arabidopsis thaliana plant, comprising: introducing a Paeonia ostia WUSCHEL-related homeobox 4 (PoWOX4) gene into an Arabidopsis thaliana plant to obtain a transgenic Arabidopsis thaliana plant that stably overexpresses the PoWOX4 gene, thereby making the transgenic Arabidopsis thaliana plant bolt early and flower early as compared to a control plant; wherein the PoWOX4 gene comprises a nucleotide sequence that encodes the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 8.
