Influence of tree water potential in inducing flowering in Rhododendron arboreum in the central Himalayan region

Rise in temperature has been reported as the principal cause of variation in flowering phenology in several tree species around the globe. In this study, we hypothesized that not only temperature but also rainfall periodicity, soil moisture and the related changes of twig water potential (ψ) in wint...
