Genetic mechanisms in the repression of flowering by gibberellins in apple (Malus x domestica Borkh.)

Abstract Background Gibberellins (GAs) can have profound effects on growth and development in higher plants. In contrast to their flowering-promotive role in many well-studied plants, GAs can repress flowering in woody perennial plants such as apple (Malus x domestica Borkh.). Although this effect o...
