Identify the white flowering tree by the climate where it’s growing. Natchez Crape Myrtle and European olive trees grow in regions with mild winters, while the mountainash grows in colder climates with winter temperatures down to -40 degrees Fahrenheit. All other white flowering trees grow in c...
On the other hand, floral buds on trees in milder regions do not always experience enough ‘chill’ to complete development [2•]. The identification of ways to manipulate bloom time via the development of new cultural practices and molecular breeding strategies could prevent severe crop losses ...
rps11 transfers imply the existence of the transferred gene in an intermediate, unidentified vectoring agent or host plant for millions of years, but these discrepancies could easily be due to imprecision in the gene trees (Fig. 2) and/or in molecular-clock-based estimates21 of divergence times...
