内容説明・目次

内容説明

Dormancy is a mechanism found in several plant species developed through evolution, which allows plants to survive in adverse conditions and ensure their perpetuation. This mechanism, however, can represent a barrier that can compromise the development of the species of interest, and therefore, the success of its cultivation. It is important to understand the causes, effects, and mechanisms, as well as the technologies for overcoming dormancy of buds, seeds, and plant propagules. In this context, this publication has as a main objective of offering an in-depth view of the dormancy process in cultivated plants, based on a survey of more recent international research on the subject. Written by several researchers from different institutions of education and research, this book presents information on the most diverse species of plants of agronomic and forestry interest. In addition to the physiological, biochemical, and genetic aspects, the chapters also address the possible causes of dormancy, as well as technological issues that are essential for the successful cultivation of several economically important species. The focus of this publication is on temperate fruit species. Classical examples of temperate plants that present dormancy are fruit trees such as apple, pear, quince, apricot, and cherry. These pome and stone fruits are typical representatives of a deciduous temperate climate, wherein trees drop their leaves at the end of the reproductive cycle, consequently entering dormancy. Dormancy has its control effected by factors of a hormonal nature, where the hormone promoters and growth inhibitors are balanced. Edaphoclimatic conditions also affect plant dormancy periods, for the most part through temperature changes. Other chapters in this book are dedicated especially to potatoes, vegetables, as well as forest and forage species, which makes this text a complete and comprehensive work on the subject.
