Identification of genes associated with growth cessation and bud dormancy entrance using a dormancy-incapable tree mutant

<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>In many tree species the perception of short days (SD) can trigger growth cessation, dormancy entrance, and the establishment of a chilling requirement for bud break. The molecular mechanisms connecting photoperiod perception, growth...
