Gibberellins (GAs) function not only to promote the growth of plant organs, but also to induce
phase transitions during development. Their involvement in flower initiation in long-day (LD) …

The floral initiation in angiosperms is a complex process influenced by endogenous and
exogenous signals. With this approach, we aim to provide a comprehensive review to …

Flowering is a critical milestone in the life cycle of plants, and changes in the timing of
flowering may alter processes at the species, community and ecosystem levels. Therefore …

Although flowering in mature fruit trees is recurrent, floral induction can be strongly inhibited
by concurrent fruiting, leading to a pattern of irregular fruiting across consecutive years …

Mast seeding is a crucial population process in many tree species, but its spatio‐temporal
patterns and drivers at the continental scale remain unknown. Using a large dataset (8000 …

The development of flower buds and a sufficient fruit set are basic requirements for fruit
growers to generate a marketable crop. However, fruit trees remain in a juvenile …

Trees require a long maturation period, known as juvenile phase, before they can
reproduce, complicating their genetic improvement as compared to annual plants.'Spadona' …

Gibberellins (GAs) affect flowering in a species-dependent manner: in long-day and biennial
plants they promote flowering, whereas in other plants, including fruit trees, they inhibit it …

Background Virus-induced gene silencing (VIGS) is an effective technology for the analysis
of gene functions in plants. Though there are many reports on virus vectors for VIGS in …

Floral induction (FI) in perennial fruit trees is distinct from that of annual/biennial (a/b) plants
because it is a quantitative process with a significant proportion of the above-ground …
