356 citations recorded by the source corpus.

Advances in research at the subcellular level and on the genetics of dormancy induction and release in woody perennials over the last 20 years or so are reviewed. These include studies on biochemical pathways and signals, cell-to-cell communication at shoot apices, physiological separation of dormancy from cold acclimatization, biochemistry of dormant mutants, endogenous growth regulators, identification of QTLs for dormancy-determining traits, mapping of dormancy-related genes, and the use of transgenics and gene expression for understanding the role of genes in dormancy.

Modelling the timing of Betula pubescens budburst. I. Temperature and photoperiod: a conceptual model (2011, background): “However, the lack of understanding of the physiological mechanisms regulating dormancy makes it difficult to develop widely applicable predictive models of budburst (Hänninen 1995, Arora et al. 2003).”
Temperate and boreal forest tree phenology: from organ-scale processes to terrestrial ecosystem models (2016, background): “The primary and secondary meristems further enter dormancy, a resting state under which no growth or tissue maturation is observed (Mellerowicz et al. 1992; Arora et al. 2003).”
Modeling Dormant Bud Cold Hardiness and Budbreak in Twenty-Three Vitis Genotypes Reveals Variation by Region of Origin (2014, methodology): “This change from the genotype-specific T th estimated in Ferguson et al. (2011) makes the fixed T th,c used for chilling requirements independent of the estimated T th used for acclimation and deacclimation (Arora et al. 2003).”
Inheritance of Flowering Time in Apricot (Prunus armeniaca L.) and Analysis of Linked Quantitative Trait Loci (QTLs) using Simple Sequence Repeat (SSR) Markers (2011, neutral): “Early flowering (low chilling requirements) has been described as dominant ( Arora et al. 2003 ).”
Disease and Frost Damage of Woody Plants Caused by Pseudomonas syringae: Seeing the Forest for the Trees (2014, background): “The annual phenology of deciduous trees is the process that begins with flower budbreak followed by leaf budbreak and sprouting in the spring and culminates in leaf fall in autumn followed by winter dormancy (Arora et al., 2003).”
Deacclimation and reacclimation of cold-hardy plants: Current understanding and emerging concepts (2006, background): “[3] R.”
Modeling the effects of winter environment on dormancy release of Douglas-fir (2010, neutral): “There have been several recent advances in physiology, biochemistry and molecular markers which may hold promise for understanding the underlying mechanisms (cf. recent reviews by Horvath et al., 2003; Arora et al., 2003; Rohde and Bhalerao, 2007).”
Natural phenological variation in aspen (Populus tremula): the SwAsp collection (2008, neutral): “Members of the genus Populus (poplars, aspens, and cottonwoods) are important forest trees around the world, producing timber, pulp, paper, and renewable energy (Taylor 2002).”
