High Temperature Storage of Freesia Cormlets for Delaying Flowering Time.

the effect of ethephon on facility of fruit harvesting and delaying in flowering time of almond

a study was conducted on six years old trees of almond, shahroud cv. (no. 18), in a three-year trial (2002-04) at mashhad agricultural research station. the experiment was done on the basis of completely randomized desigh with four replications. in the first and second years of the experiment, ethephon was sprayed in 15 and 20 days before the common time of harvesting, respectively. the concent...

Effects of temperature and storage time on germination process of encapsulated protocorms of Dactylorhiza umbrosa

Implications of High Temperature and Elevated CO2 on Flowering Time in Plants

Flowering is a crucial determinant for plant reproductive success and seed-set. Increasing temperature and elevated carbon-dioxide (e[CO2]) are key climate change factors that could affect plant fitness and flowering related events. Addressing the effect of these environmental factors on flowering events such as time of day of anthesis (TOA) and flowering time (duration from germination till fl...

Flowering retardation by high temperature in chrysanthemums: involvement of FLOWERING LOCUS T-like 3 gene repression

Flowering time of the short-day plant Chrysanthemum morifolium is largely dependent upon daylength, but it is also distinctly influenced by other environmental factors. Flowering is delayed by summer heat. Here, the underlying basis for this phenomenon was investigated. Heat-induced flowering retardation occurred similarly in C. morifolium and C. seticuspe, a wild-type diploid chrysanthemum. In...
