Plant height plays a crucial role in both the structure and quality of plants. Pinus
yunnanensis is a distinctive species of the forest found in Southwest China, where the height …

A long juvenile period limits the breeding process of fruit trees, such as pears. To
understand the molecular mechanisms involved in the juvenile-adult phase change, two …

The SQUAMOSA promoter-binding protein-like (SPL) family play a key role in guiding the
switch of plant growth from juvenile to adult phases. Populus euphratica Oliv. exhibit typical …

Bamboo plants have a distinctive life cycle with long flowering periodicity. Many species
remain in vegetative growth for decades, followed by large-scale flowering and subsequent …

Pinus massoniana needles, rich in medicinal polysaccharides and flavonoids, undergo
heteroblastic foliage, transitioning from primary needles (PN) to secondary needles (SN) …

Abstract Background Trees such as Populus are planted extensively for reforestation and
afforestation. However, their successful establishment greatly depends upon ambient …

Polyploid breeding is one of the most important approaches to improve the traits of cultivated
plants, but there has been no feasible method to get polyploid tree peony. In this study, we …

In order to predict the performance of growth, development and resistance of a citrus diploid
cybrid plant between Citrus unshiu Marc. cv. Guoqing No. 1 (G1) and Hirado Buntan …

Background Gene conversion has an important effect on duplicate genes produced by
polyploidization. Poplar (Populus trichocarpa) and willow (Salix brachista) are leading …

Albino seedlings that arise during seed reproduction can have a significant impact on plant
growth and breeding. In this research, we present the first report of albino occurrences in the …
