Biochemical Studies of Bud Dormancy in Tanweed.
By definition, a dormant vegetative bud is viable but it fails to grow when subjected to environmental conditions normally favorable for growth. An understanding of the biochemistry of dormant and active buds is needed to serve as a basis for solving the problem of artificially breaking or inducing bud dormancy. The present study was conducted with the aim of adding to existing knowledge concer...
متن کاملEthanol breaks dormancy of the potato tuber apical bud.
Growing potato tubers or freshly harvested mature tubers have a dormant apical bud. Normally, this dormancy is spontaneously broken after a period of maturation of the tuber, resulting in the growth of a new sprout. Here it is shown that in in vitro-cultured growing and maturing tubers, ethanol can rapidly break this dormancy and re-induce growth of the apical bud. The in vivo promoter activity...
متن کاملKnowing when to grow: signals regulating bud dormancy.
Dormancy regulation in vegetative buds is a complex process necessary for plant survival, development and architecture. Our understanding of and ability to manipulate these processes are crucial for increasing the yield and availability of much of the world's food. In many cases, release of dormancy results in increased cell division and changes in developmental programs. Much can be learned ab...
متن کاملEpigenetic regulation of bud dormancy events in perennial plants
Release of bud dormancy in perennial plants resembles vernalization in Arabidopsis thaliana and cereals. In both cases, a certain period of chilling is required for accomplishing the reproductive phase, and several transcription factors with the MADS-box domain perform a central regulatory role in these processes. The expression of DORMANCY-ASSOCIATED MADS-box (DAM)-related genes has been found...
متن کاملComparative proteomic and transcriptomic approaches to address the active role of GA4 in Japanese apricot flower bud dormancy release
Hormones are closely associated with dormancy in deciduous fruit trees, and gibberellins (GAs) are known to be particularly important. In this study, we observed that GA4 treatment led to earlier bud break in Japanese apricot. To understand better the promoting effect of GA4 on the dormancy release of Japanese apricot flower buds, proteomic and transcriptomic approaches were used to analyse the...
