Recent climate change has resulted in warmer temperatures. Warmer temperatures from
autumn to spring has negatively affected dormancy progression, cold (de) acclimation, and …

Bud dormancy helps woody perennials survive winter and activate robust plant development
in the spring. For apple (Malus× domestica), short‐term chilling induces bud dormancy in …

Abstract GA20 oxidase (GA20ox) is an enzyme that regulates GA (Gibberellic acid)
biosynthesis and is essential in maintaining the dynamic balance of gibberellin in plants. We …

Introduction To avoid the negative impacts of winter unfavorable conditions for plant
development, temperate trees enter a rest period called dormancy. Winter dormancy is a …

Abscisic acid (ABA) is involved in responding to various stresses and regulating the
dormancy of flower buds in fruit trees. The cleavage of carotenoids is catalyzed by 9-cis …

Models used to predict the onset of fruit tree blossom under changed climate conditions
should be physiologically based as much as possible. Pure optimized phenology models …

Annual growth cycles of perennial horticultural and forest woody plant species of temperate
and boreal regions can be divided into two phases, namely the growth and dormancy …

Winter dormancy is still a “black box” in phenological models, because it evades simple
observation. This study presents the first step in the identification of suitable metabolites …

Here we report on metabolites found in a targeted profiling of 'Summit'flower buds for nine
years, which could be indicators for the timing of endodormancy release (t1) and beginning …

Flowering date is an important trait in Prunus fruit species, especially for their adaptation in a
global warming context. Numerous quantitative trait loci (QTLs) have been identified and a …
