| Abstract: | Apical buds of evergreen azalea (Rhododendron sp.) were treated with GA(4 + 7) at different stages of development. Treatment of vegetative buds stimulated shoot growth, slightly delayed both flower initiation and development, but increased the number of flower primordia. Treatment at the time of floral transition induced bud abortion at an early stage of the reproductive development. Treatment of inflorescence buds which contained at least one complete flower substituted for chilling in overcoming dormancy and prevented inflorescence bud abortion. |
