The effect of 6-benzylamino purine on axillary bud growth of Ilex crenata Thunb. 'Rotundifolia'
… timing of BA application at various phases of bud development of Ilex crenata Thunb. 'Rotundifolia' were studied. Foliar applications of BA at 800 ppm to unbranched rooted cuttings enhanced axillary bud development resulting in well branched Iiners. Axillary bud development of rooted cuttings …

Efficacy of Sucker Control Method and Effect of Topping Height on Axillary Bud Growth in Dark Fire-Cured Tobacco
The removal of terminal buds (topping) and sucker control are two practices that have an impact on yield and quality of dark tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum L.). Topping breaks apical dominance and encourages the growth of axillary buds (suckers). Following topping, growth regulator chemicals known as …

The role of strigolactone and auxin in the regulation of shoot branching
… role of strigolactone and auxin in controlling bud growth dynamics and their effect on plant branching levels and development more generally. Firstly, I present a novel molecular mechanism for strigolactone perception, developed in collaboration with Prof. Ning Zheng’s group; I then link …

The hormonal regulation of PIN protein localisation and its relevance to shoot architecture
… of diverse signals to regulate the activity of buds, which is partially mediated through auxin transport by PINs and the regulation thereof. Whilst PIN behaviour has been well characterised, the mechanisms by which PINs sense and respond to auxin, strigolactone and cytokinin remain unknown. In …

Physiological studies and modeling of photoperiodic effects on flowering and maturity in soybeans (Glycine max (L.) Merr.) differing in maturity
… studies of photoperiod effects on soybean growth and development especially focused on flowering in relating to physiology, phenology, morphology, as well as modeling from three years (1992-1994) of field and controlled experiments. These studies indicated that photoperiod affected soybean …

Relationship of free radical scavenging enzymes to fruit growth, development, ripening, and senescence in 'Red Delicious' apples
… investigated during different stages of fruit bud growth and development in 'Red Spur Delicious' apples (Molus domestica Borkh.). Changes in the activities of these enzymes were also monitored at harvest and during cold storage in relation to ripening, senescence, and scald development. At bud …

Regulatory dynamics of axillary bud competition in Arabidopsis
… a plant depends on the activity of its axillary buds, which are continuously produced during development. Each axillary bud can either stay dormant or activate to form a branch, giving rise to a large number of possible branching forms. Whether a bud activates depends on the integration of local …

Studies on the factors influencing inhibition of lateral buds and branches
… in terms of their relative importance in the outgrowth of lateral buds. Both nitrogen and light are shown to be major factors in tillering of ryegrass and in addition that high nitrogen levels alone induce tillering in an apparently specific manner. This is in contrast to corresponding light …
