| Research Abstract |
The transition from bud endodormancy state was characterized by a significant increasing on glutathione content in dormant bud tissues. The GSH accumulation in the buds was coincided with major increases in transcript patterns of genes GSH1 and GSH2 and redox regulating enzyme genes such as the alternative oxidase (AOX). According to the findings by MRI observation, a gradual increase in water content to that required for peach dormant bud activity at the end of endodomancy was resulted from inter- and intracell communication through membrane transport properties of aquaporins. And also, the mixed buds of Japanese pear subjected to low chilling accumulation showed low water mobility and water content especially in scales. In contrast, increased water mobility and relative content were observed in specific portions, which was more accentuated in the mixed buds of plants grown for several seasons under mild winter conditions, resulting in the necrosis of floral primordia, and the development of new inflorescences which corresponds an irregular floral form.
