The minimum temperature for budburst in Betula depends on the state of dormancy [PDF]
Tree Physiology, 2012 Vegis has put forward the theory that the range of growth-promoting temperatures changes during the induction and the release of dormancy. We have tested the response of buds of Betula pubescens Ehrh. and B. pendula Roth. on temperature during the induction and release of dormancy. Betula seedlings were exposed to dormancy-inducing high-temperature and

Predicting the risk of frost occurrence after budburst of Norway spruce in Sweden. [PDF]
Silva Fennica, 1994 Temperature sums required for budburst in various Norway spruce ( (L.) H. Karst.) provenances were determined, and weather statistics were then used to predict the risk of potentially damaging frosts at 11 locations in Sweden. Frost risk was quantified as the probability of a frost occurring within 100 day-degrees (two weeks) after budburst.

Budburst and flowering intensity by the spraying of dormancy-breaking products in ‘Eva’ apple trees
Semina: Ciências Agrárias, 2019 Spraying of dormancy-breaking chemicals is a mandatory procedure to produce temperate fruits in low-chill regions. Although hydrogen cyanamide (HC) + mineral oil (MO) show efficiency enhancing budburst, the usage of HC is restricted in some countries due

Frost hardening and dehardening potential in temperate trees from winter to budburst [PDF]
New Phytologist, 2017 Summary We investigated how deciduous trees can adjust their freezing resistance in response to temperature during the progress of the ecodormancy phase, from midwinter to budburst. We regularly sampled twigs of four different temperate deciduous tree species from January to the leaf‐out date. Using computer‐controlled freezers and climate chambers,

Do Nonstructural Carbohydrates Contribute to Pecan (Carya illinoinensis) Secondary Budburst? [PDF]
Hortscience, 2023 Spring freeze is among the problems threatening pecan bloom and production. Pecan tree height and structure make them difficult to protect from spring freezes.

Real Life Science with Dandelions and Project BudBurst
Journal of Microbiology & Biology Education, 2016 Project BudBurst is a national citizen-science project that tracks bloom times and other phenological data for plants across the country. Data from Project BudBurst are being used to measure the effects of climate change. Students can participate in this

Trends and uncertainties in budburst projections of Norway spruce in Northern Europe [PDF]
Ecology and Evolution, 2017 AbstractBudburst is regulated by temperature conditions, and a warming climate is associated with earlier budburst. A range of phenology models has been developed to assess climate change effects, and they tend to produce different results. This is mainly caused by different model representations of tree physiology processes, selection of observational

Individual variation in reaction norms but no directional selection in reproductive plasticity of a wild passerine population [PDF]
Ecology and Evolution, 2022 In the plant–insect–insectivorous bird food chain, directional changes in climate can result in mismatched phenology, potentially affecting selection pressures.

Multi-Omics Insights into Grapevine Ecodormancy to Budburst Transition: Interplay of Gene Expression, miRNA Regulation, and DNA Methylation [PDF]
bioRxiv, 2023 In grapevine, the transition from a dormant bud to budburst is a critical developmental process related to vegetative and reproductive growth. We generated a time series analysis (five sampling time points) and used transcriptome, small RNA, and whole ...
