Bud dormancy is an essential strategy for perennial plants to resist unsuitable growth
environments, which is of great significance for the survival and reproduction of plants. Short …

Among crop fruit trees, the apricot (Prunus armeniaca) provides an excellent model to study
divergence and adaptation processes. Here, we obtain nearly 600 Armeniaca apricot …

The regulation of bloom time in deciduous fruit trees is an area of increasing interest due to
the negative impact of climate change on fruit production. Although flower development has …

In this work, we studied the interplay among the levels of starch, sugars, abscisic acid (ABA)
and bioactive gibberellins (GAs), and the antioxidant metabolism during bud dormancy …

Flower bud dormancy in temperate fruit tree species, such as almond [Prunus dulcis (Mill.)
DA Webb], is a survival mechanism that ensures that flowering will occur under suitable …

Bud dormancy in temperate perennials ensures the survival of growing meristems under the
harsh environmental conditions of autumn and winter, and facilitates an optimal growth and …

In temperate zones, fruit trees regulate their annual growth cycle to seasonal environmental
changes. During the cold season, growth is limited by both environmental and genetic …

MicroRNAs is one class of small non-coding RNAs that play important roles in plant growth
and development. Though miRNAs and their target genes have been widely studied in …

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 …

(1) Background: Prunus species have the ability to suspend (induce dormancy) and restart
growth, in an intricate process in which environmental and physiological factors interact.(2) …
