Bud composition, branching patterns and leaf phenology in cerrado woody species.
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Plants have complex mechanisms of aerial biomass exposition, which depend on bud composition, the period of the year in which shoot extension occurs, branching pattern, foliage persistence, herbivory and environmental conditions. METHODS The influence of water availability and temperature on shoot growth, the bud composition, the leaf phenology, and the relationship betwee...
متن کاملGibberellin Promotes Shoot Branching in the Perennial Woody Plant Jatropha curcas
Strigolactone (SL), auxin and cytokinin (CK) interact to regulate shoot branching. CK has long been considered to be the only key phytohormone to promote lateral bud outgrowth. Here we report that gibberellin also acts as a positive regulator in the control of shoot branching in the woody plant Jatropha curcas. We show that gibberellin and CK synergistically promote lateral bud outgrowth, and t...
متن کاملA Whole-plant Approach to Identifying Sites of Auxin Biosynthesis in Populus
The plant hormone auxin regulates many processes throughout plant growth and development. Aboveground auxin biosynthesis is thought to occur exclusively in the shoot apex, where it then moves via polar auxin transport (PAT) down through developing vasculature in the stem. In contrast to the canonical view of the shoot apex as the sole site of auxin production, there is some evidence to suggest ...
متن کاملInternal remobilization of carbohydrates, lipids, nitrogen and phosphorus in the Mediterranean evergreen oak Quercus ilex.
Remobilization of internal resources is an important mechanism enabling plants to be partly independent of external nutrient availability. We assessed resource remobilization during the growing period in woody and foliar tissues of leafy branches of mature evergreen Mediterranean oak (Quercus ilex L.) at three field sites. We compared nonstructural carbohydrates, lipids, nitrogen and phosphorus...
متن کاملWhat genes make a tree a tree?
Woody growth is evolutionarily ancient, yet has been gained and lost multiple times in plant evolution and is readily enhanced or minimized in eudicot speciation. New molecular genetic and genomic studies in Populus and Arabidopsis that are defining the genes responsible for cambium function and woody growth suggest that the genes regulating woody growth are not unique to woody plants. Surprisi...
