Bud dormancy in temperate perennials ensures the survival of growing meristems under the harsh environmental conditions of autumn and winter, and facilitates an optimal growth and development resumption in the spring. Although the molecular pathways controlling the dormancy process are still unclear, <i>DORMANCY-ASSOCIATED MADS-BOX</i> genes (<i>DAM</i>) have emerged as key regulators of the dormancy cycle in different species. In the present study, we have characterized the orthologs of <i>DAM< ...[more]
