Analysis of the Modulation of Dormancy Release in Almond (Prunus dulcis) in Relation to the Flowering and Ripening Dates and Production under Controlled Temperature Conditions

Agronomy, 2020
In this study, the control of eco- and endo-dormancy release led to the modulation of the flowering time in almond (Prunus dulcis (Mill.) D.A. Webb). The study was performed in almond cultivars with contrasting flowering times: the extra-early flowering ...

Frost hardiness ofPhiladelphusandHydrangeaclones during ecodormancy

Acta Agriculturae Scandinavica, Section B - Soil & Plant Science, 1997
The frost hardiness of clones of two ornamental shrubs, hydrangea (Hydrangea paniculata Sieb. ‘Grandiflora') and mock orange (Philadelphus lewisii Pursh. var. lewisii ’Waterton'), was measured after completion of endodormancy. In addition to actual hardiness, minimum and potential hardiness were examined with the aid of four artificial hardening and ...

The performance of growing degree day models to predict spring phenology of herbaceous species depends on the species' temporal niche

Functional Ecology, Volume 40, Issue 5, Page 1207-1220, May 2026.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract The concept of growing degree days (GDDs) is commonly used to predict phenological events in plants, assuming that plants develop proportionally to the accumulated temperature. Two species‐specific parameters, TBase and t0 (minimum temperature above which and start date

Dormancy Patterns of Apple Trees Grown in a Mild Winter Region: A Breakpoint Model Analysis

Physiologia Plantarum, Volume 178, Issue 3, May/June 2026.
ABSTRACT Climate change poses a significant challenge to the production of temperate climate fruit trees, since the dormancy of these species is regulated by the chill and heat accumulation during winter and early spring. This study aimed to identify the dormancy evolution patterns of three apple cultivars (“Galaxy,” “Fuji Suprema,” and “Eva”) in a ...

Ice Nucleation and Freezing Consequences in Perennial Plants

Physiologia Plantarum, Volume 178, Issue 3, May/June 2026.
ABSTRACT The precise location where ice forms in plants affects the physical constraint it exerts on the different biological compartments (cells, tissues, organs). It is therefore critical to understand where and how ice nucleates to predict the extent of low temperature damage.

Photoperiod–Temperature Interactions in a Changing Climate: A Review of Plant Phenological Responses

Journal of Biogeography, Volume 53, Issue 1, January 2026.
ABSTRACT Aim Climate change is reshaping plant phenology and species distributions, especially in temperate and boreal ecosystems, where advances in spring events have already extended the growing season. While temperature has been the primary focus of many studies, the role of photoperiod—a stable, latitude‐dependent cue—remains underexplored.

Improving leaf spring phenology modelling for temperate tree species: An integration of the Farquhar–Medlyn photosynthesis model with the optimality‐based approach

Methods in Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 12, Page 2901-2918, December 2025.
Abstract Spring leaf phenology in temperate tree species is highly sensitive to climate change and significantly affects plant photosynthetic performance, resource utilization, competition and trophic interactions, thereby impacting various ecosystem functions.

Overexpression of Tempranillo‐Like Proteins Promotes Dormancy Release in Poplar

Plant, Cell &Environment, Volume 48, Issue 12, Page 9011-9024, December 2025.
ABSTRACT Trees in temperate and boreal latitudes synchronize their growth‐dormancy cycles with seasonal environmental variations to ensure their survival over the years. Dormancy control is crucial during winter when plants cease growth and establish buds to protect their apical meristems from cold temperatures.

Genetic Analysis of Apple Autumn Canopy Senescence in a Nordic Climate

Physiologia Plantarum, Volume 177, Issue 6, November/December 2025.
ABSTRACT Autumn phenology traits are likely to be essential for the adaptation of apple to boreal climate. However, the genetic control of these traits is not well understood, and, for example, growth cessation does not appear to be controlled by day length as in many other boreal tree species.
