Properties of peach flower buds which facilitate supercooling.
Water in dormant peach (Prunus persica [L.] Batsch. var. ;Harbrite') flower buds deep supercooled. Both supercooling and the freezing of water within the bud axis and primordium as distinct components depended on the viability of the bud axis tissue. The viability of the primordium was not critical. Supercooling was prevented by wounding buds with a dissecting needle, indicating that bud struct...
متن کاملDormant Flower Buds Actively Accumulate Starch over Winter in Sweet Cherry
Temperate woody perennials survive to low temperatures in winter entering a dormant stage. Dormancy is not just a survival strategy, since chilling accumulation is required for proper flowering and arbitrates species adaptation to different latitudes. In spite of the fact that chilling requirements have been known for two centuries, the biological basis behind remain elusive. Since chilling acc...
متن کاملCryopreservation of Vegetative Dormant Winter Buds
Cryopreservation of vegetative winter buds is an alternative method to preserving plant species in the field. In this method, nodal sections of scionwood are stored in liquid nitrogen vapor. Cryopreservation of the vegetative dormant winter buds involves low maintenance costs and virtually eliminates the risk of germplasm loss. At the NCGRP, this method is routinely used to preserve Malus sp. (...
متن کاملSupercooling in overwintering azalea flower buds.
Differential thermal analysis and nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy experiments on whole flower buds and excised floral primordia of azalea (Rhododendron kosterianum, Schneid.) proved that supercooling is the mode of freezing resistance (avoidance) of azalea flower primordia. Increase in the linewidth of nuclear magnetic resonance spectra for water upon thawing supports the view that inju...
متن کاملLive confocal imaging of Arabidopsis flower buds.
Recent advances in confocal microscopy, coupled with the development of numerous fluorescent reporters, provide us with a powerful tool to study the development of plants. Live confocal imaging has been used extensively to further our understanding of the mechanisms underlying the formation of roots, shoots and leaves. However, it has not been widely applied to flowers, partly because of specif...
