Leafing‐out of woody plants begins the growing season in temperate forests and is one of
the most important drivers of ecosystem processes. There is substantial variation in the …

Microclimatic effects (light, temperature) are often neglected in phenological studies and
little information is known about the impact of resource availability (nutrient and water) on …

Mapping and sequencing of the non-dormant evg mutant in peach [Prunus persica (L.)
Batsch] identified six tandem-arrayed DAM (d ormancy-a ssociated M ADS-box) genes as …

Boreal forests are experiencing dramatic climate change, having warmed 1.0°–1.9° C over
the last century. Yet forest regeneration practices are often still dictated by a fixed seed zone …

With global warming, an advance in spring leaf phenology has been reported worldwide.
However, it is difficult to forecast phenology for a given species, due to a lack of knowledge …

Ozone sensitivity of silver birch (Betula pendula Roth) has been thoroughly investigated
since early 1990′ s in Finland. In our long-term open-field experiments the annual …

Background Climate‐change‐induced shifts in the timing of leaf emergence during spring
have been widely documented and have important ecological consequences. However …

The paper presents an assessment of birch pollen seasons in Finland and Russia. The re-
analysis covered the period from 1994 to 2005 and was focused on suspected long-range …

The magnitude of flowering of many forest tree species varies intermittently and extensively
from year to year. Besides its great consequences for the reproductive biology of plant …

Strong seasonality in the subarctic causes unfavorable conditions for plant growth driving
strong latitudinal clines in growth onset and cessation related to temperature and …
