Developmental Biology of Dormancy Cycling

In perennial plants, like trees, the SAM is cycling between active and dormant states in synchrony with the season (Rinne et al. 2001; Rinne and van der Schoot 2003, 2004). The SD-induced development of dormancy and acclimation involves the obstruction of cellular contacts at the SAM, including ...
