[EN] Citrus are polycarpic and evergreen species that flower once in spring or several times a year depending on the genotype and the climatic conditions. Floral induction is triggered by low temperature and water-deficit ...
[EN] EjFT1 and EjFT2 genes were isolated and sequenced from leaves of loquat. EjFT1 is involved in bud sprouting and leaf development, and EjFT2 in floral bud induction.
Loquat [Eriobotrya japonica (Thunb.) Lindl.] is ...
Seedlessness is a highly desirable characteristic in fresh fruits. However, post-fertilization seed abortion of cross-pollinated citrus fruit is uncommon. The factors regulating stenospermocarpy in citrus are unknown. In ...
[EN] Key message PpeS6PDH gene is postulated to mediate sorbitol synthesis in flower buds of peach concomitantly with specific chromatin modifications.
Abstract Perennial plants have evolved an adaptive mechanism involving ...
[EN] Citrus fruit colour is an important marketing feature. In view of the relative independence between internal and external maturity,
in early mandarins fruit harvest takes place before reaching fruit full colouration. ...

En esta Tesis Doctoral se estudia el comportamiento alternante de los cítricos. naranjo dulce, mandarino Clementino e híbridos, y la influencia del fruto en el mismo.
La hipótesis de trabajo es que en los cítricos el ...
[EN] In order to gain insights into the controversial ripening behavior of loquat fruits, in the present study we have analyzed the expression of three genes related to ethylene biosynthesis (ACS1, ACO1 and ACO2), two ...
[EN] High temperatures alter the ripening process of citrus fruit, affecting quality, flavor, harvest time and marketing period. For example, citrus fruits ripen faster and are sweeter in tropical hot-humid climates than ...
Photosynthate translocation to the root in loquat trees decreases as fruit develops. Thus, during the most active period of fruit development, that is, from 50 % of its final size to the beginning of fruit color change, ...

The floral bud inductive period, PBZ promotes flowering in Citrus; however, our results indicate that this effect is fruit-load dependant. In 'Salustiana' and 'Navelina' sweet oranges, 'Hernandina' Clementine mandarin, and ...
The effects of fruit on bud sprouting and vegetative growth were compared on fruiting and defruited loquat trees from fruit set onward. Carbohydrate and nitrogen content in leaves and bark tissues and hormone concentrations ...

[EN] In many perennial plants, seasonal flowering is primarily controlled by environmental conditions, but in certain polycarpic plants, environmental signals are locally gated by the presence of developing fruits initiated ...

[EN] Background and Aims In woody species, the juvenile period maintains the axillary meristems in a vegetative stage, unable to flower, for several years. However, in adult trees, some 1-year-old meristems flower whereas ...
The application of gibberellic acid (GA 3) to the whole loquat tree from mid-May to early June and from early August to the onset of flowering, significantly reduced the number of premature flowering shoots per current ...
In Citrus, colour break has been positively related to ethylene, abscisic acid (ABA) and carbohydrates, and negatively related to gibberellins and nitrogen. However, the mechanisms by which these substances affect the ...
[EN] Citrus is a wide genus in which most of the cultivated species and cultivars are natural parthenocarpic mutants or hybrids (i.e. orange, mandarin, tangerine, grapefruit). The autonomous increase in GA(1) ovary ...
[EN] The avocado tree (Persea americana Mill.) has two types of shoots, indeterminate, which maintain vegetative development from an apical bud, and determinate, which do not have vegetative growth. Indeterminate shoots ...
The objective of this research was to determine the changes in the levels of endogenous gibberellins GA(1) and GA(4), abscisic acid (ABA), and ethylene during fruit coloring of on-tree fruits of sweet orange. The time ...
[EN] In persimmon (Diospyros kaki Thunb.), one to three waves of fruit abscission can occur. The parthenocarpic cv. Rojo Brillante may abscise close to 50% of flowers, which implies a major economic losses.
In order to ...
In loquat (Eriobotrya japonica Lindl.), the comparison of fruiting trees and defruited trees carried out covering a range of developmental fruit stages reveals a significant reduction in flowering due to fruit from its ...
