Trees growing in boreal and temperate regions synchronize their growth with seasonal
climatic changes in adaptive responses that are essential for their survival. These trees …

For perennial plants, bud dormancy is a crucial step as its progression over winter
determines the quality of bud break, flowering, and fruiting. In the past decades, many …

In boreal and temperate ecosystems, temperature signal regulates the reactivation of growth
(bud break) in perennials in the spring. Molecular basis of temperature-mediated control of …

Woody perennials enter seasonal dormancy to avoid unfavorable environmental conditions.
Plant hormones are the critical mediators regulating this complex process, which is subject …

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 …

Background How plants adapt their developmental patterns to regular seasonal changes is
an important question in biology. The annual growth cycle in perennial long-lived trees is yet …

Bud dormancy is an evolved trait that confers adaptation to harsh environments, and affects
flower differentiation, crop yield and vegetative growth in perennials. ABA is a stress …

Spring phenology of temperate forest trees has advanced substantially over the last
decades due to climate warming, but this advancement is slowing down despite continuous …

Forests are not only the most predominant of the Earth's terrestrial ecosystems, but are also
the core supply for essential products for human use. However, global climate change and …

Abstract In the pear 'Kosui'(Pyrus pyrifolia Nakai), the dormancy-associated MADS-box
(PpDAM1= PpMADS13-1) gene has been reported to play an essential role in bud …
