lower-bud formation in pome fruits as affected by fruit thinning (2000, background): “Flowering promotion by ethephon has been reported for a number of plants including fruit trees [1, 10].”
No Flower no Fruit - Genetic Potentials to Trigger Flowering in Fruit Trees (2007, background): “According to this report, MdTFL1 is possibly involved in the regulation of flower induction from late June to late July since this period is thought to be critical for the determination of meristem identity in apple (Hanke 1981; Buban and Faust 1982; Kotoda et al. 2000; Foster et al. 2003).”
MdTFL1, a TFL1-like gene of apple, retards the transition from the vegetative to reproductive phase in transgenic Arabidopsis (2005, background): “MdTFL1 is possibly involved in the regulation of flower induction from late June to early July (6–8 WAFB) since this period is thought to be critical for the determination of meristem identity in apple [20,35,36].”
