Bud dormancy is an adaptive process that allows trees to survive the hard environmental
conditions that they experience during the winter of temperate climates. Dormancy is …

The annual growth cycle of trees is the result of seasonal cues. The onset of winter triggers
an endodormant state preventing bud growth and, once a chilling requirement is satisfied …

Release of bud dormancy in perennial plants resembles vernalization in Arabidopsis
thaliana and cereals. In both cases, a certain period of chilling is required for accomplishing …

Background Dormancy associated MADS-box (DAM) genes are candidates for the
regulation of growth cessation and terminal bud formation in peach. These genes are not …

Bud dormancy allows most deciduous fruit tree species to avoid injury in unsuitable
environments, synchronize their annual growth, and adapt to a temperate zone climate …

The Dormancy-associated MADS-box (DAM) gene cluster in peach serves as a key
regulatory hub on which the seasonal temperatures act and orchestrate dormancy onset and …

Floral bud dormancy release of fruit tree species is greatly influenced by climate change.
The lack of chilling accumulation often results in the occurrence of abnormal flower and low …

The present study investigated the expressional regulation of PpDAM5 and PpDAM6, two of
the six peach (Prunus persica) dormancy-associated MADS-box genes, in relation to lateral …

A group of MADS transcription factors (TFs) are believed to control temperature‐mediated
bud dormancy. These TFs, called DORMANCY‐ASSOCIATED MADS‐BOX (DAM), are …

Apple trees require a long exposure to chilling temperature during winter to acquire
competency to flower and grow in the following spring. Climate change or adverse …
