The aims are to evaluate morpho-anatomical bud development during dormancy and to
compare the heat requirement needed to start bud break in several grapevine cultivars …

Almost a century ago, observed geographic patterns of plant phenology (such as leaf-out
and flowering) were summarized in Hopkins' Bioclimatic Law. This law describes phenology …

The aim of this research was to characterise the phenological behaviour of five peach and
five apricot cultivars and to quantify their chilling and heat requirements by evaluating and …

Trials were set up in two sharply differing climatic environments (Murcia and Tuscan
Maremma), using some cultivars common to both areas. Apricot twigs were collected …

Hormonal changes in leaf and flower buds of Prunus persica (L.) Batsch.(cv'Springcrest'/
seedling) occurring during the 1988/89 and 1989/90 rest periods were studied under three …

The aim of this research was to study the relationship between the end of dormancy, xylem
vessel differentiation and microsporogenesis in flower buds of cultivar'Canino'growing in …

The progression of the dormancy of apricot (Prunus armeniaca L.) vegetative and
reproductive buds in the summer–winter period (June–March) was analysed with the single …

Apricot (Prunus armeniaca L.) is a fruit species showing several problems related to its floral
biology with inconstant and extremely low yield attributed to the lack of climatic adaptation …

The antioxidant metabolism of higher plants undergoes alterations according to a seasonal
cycle. Studies have demonstrated that free radicals are formed in dormant buds, where their …

The adaptability of apricot (Prunus armeniaca L.) to specific environments is strongly
influenced by the overcoming of flower bud dormancy. In order to establish the involvement …
