Control of Arabidopsis flowering: the chill before the bloom.

Investigation and estimation of chill and heat requirements of flower buds of some promising almond genotypes and cultivars

The aim of this study was to investigate the chill and heat requirements of flower buds of 8 foreign and domestic commercial cultivars and promising domestic almond genotypes during 2019 and 2020 as a factorial experiment based on a completely randomized design with 3 replications and two factors including five cultivar type (Tuono, Nanpariel, Mamaie, Shahroud 12, Rabi) and three genotypes (1-1...

Role of methyl jasmonate and salicylic acid applications on bloom delay, flowering and fruiting of ‘Elberta’ Peach

Peach (Prunus persica L. Batsch.) is produced in most areas of Iran, where flowering is hindered by temperature. Using plant growth regulators to delay bloom is a suggestive measure to avoid frost damage. The objective of this study was to determine the effects of methyl jasmonate (MJ) and salicylic acid (SA) on peach bloom delay and yield.  This study evaluated the applications of MJ 0 (contro...

تأثیر اتفن و روغن سویا بر زمان گلدهی دو واریته زردآلوی شاهرودی

                                          Early flowering in apricot trees is leading to the spring frost. Delay of flowering is one of approaches to prevent spring frost damage. Hence, a factorial experiment on the base of RCBD was conducted in agriculture faculty, Shahrood University at 2014-15 years. The effect of spraying with soybean oil (10 and 15 percent) and ethephon (100 and 200 mg/...

Effects of pre and post-bloom applications of ethephon on flowering of strawberries

Isolation and molecular characterization of the RecQsim gene in Arabidopsis, rice (Oryza sativa) and rape (Brassica napus)

In any organism that reproduces sexually, DNA Recombination plays vital roles in the generation of allelic diversity as well as in preservation of genome fidelity. Genome fidelity is particularly important in plants because mutations occurring during the development of flowering plants are heritable and can be passed onto the next generation. One of the gene families that play crucial roles in ...
