Eriksson, S. 2005 The Role of Gibberellins in the Regulation of Arabidopsis Flowering Time. Doctor’s dissertation ISSN 1652-6880, ISBN 91-576-7142-7 The transition to flowering in the facultative long-day plant Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana) have been thoroughly studied and today it is well understood how flowering in response to changes in photoperiod and cold is integrated at the molecula...

Abstract The objective of this study was to assess the effects post-bloom (PB) or preharvest (PH) treatments ‘Braeburn’ apple trees with prohexadione-calcium (ProCa; 300 mg L-1), an inhibitor gibberellins biosynthesis, GA4+7 (300 L-1) on fruit quality at harvest and after storage (four months 0±0.5 oC, followed by five days shelf life). PB started 15 full bloom, one application every week six a...

Flower initiation in Arabidopsis thaliana under noninductive short-day conditions is dependent on the biosynthesis of the plant hormone gibberellin (GA). This dependency can be explained, at least partly, by GA regulation of the flower meristem identity gene LEAFY (LFY) and the flowering time gene SUPPRESSOR OF CONSTANS1. Although it is well established that GA(4) is the active GA in the regula...

Gleditsia sinensis Lam. (Fam. Leguminosae; Gen.: Gleditsia) has various uses, including for medicinal, edible, chemical, and material purposes, is widely distributed in China. However, the extent of graft compatibility its impact on growth when using different species as rootstocks grafting G. scions not yet clear. This study examined homologous heterologous between species, measuring survival ...
