Levée de dormance de L'embryon de Pommier (Pirus malus L.) en l'absence d'oxygène et de froid

Breaking of dormancy of the apple embryo (Pirus malus L.) in the absence of oxygen and cold

Planta Aims and scope Submit manuscript

Summary

The dormancy of apple embryos may be entirely broken without cold by keeping them in N2-atmosphere. The breaking of dormancy under these conditions is more rapid than that obtained by cold treatment.
