Abstract
VIVEROS-VIVEROS, H. and VARGAS-HERNANDEZ, J. J.. BUD DORMANCY IN FOREST TREES. Rev. Chapingo ser. cienc. for. ambient [online]. 2007, vol.13, n.2, pp.131-135. ISSN 2007-4018.
Most perennial plants of cold-temperate zones have a dormancy period during their annual growth cycle. For over fourty years scientists have intended to explain the adaptive value of dormancy through the understanding of the relationships among bud dormancy and specific environmental factors. Current knowledge on this topic is described in this document.
Keywords : bud quiescence; forest species; temperature; photoperiod.
