Polar Auxin Transport and Alternate Bearing in Fruit Trees by Avi Sadka

Explore polar auxin transport and alternate bearing in fruit trees through this insightful webinar from the Journal of Experimental Botany Series. Delve into Avi Sadka's research on how fruit presence influences polar auxin transport in citrus and olive stems, and its impact on IAA release from buds. Gain a comprehensive understanding of alternate bearing patterns, real data analysis, and the citrus annual cycle. Examine the alternate bearing signal, memory in buds, and oxygen homeostasis. Investigate transcriptomic data, gene roles, and oxy levels in relation to primogenic dominance. Learn about polar auxin transport mechanisms and their effects on fruit trees. Discover whether oxy can replace fruit and draw conclusions from the presented findings. Engage with discussions on gibberellins and auxin, auxin application, cold induction, epigenetics, and the practical implications for fruit production. Enhance your knowledge of experimental botany and fruit tree physiology through this in-depth presentation by a leading researcher from the Agricultural Research Organization, Volcani Center in Israel.
