The summer solstice is not just a calendar entry. It is a signal to all the trees in temperate zones in the north to begin preparation to survive the winter cold. Yes, today, the growing season ends for most trees. Have a look at the trees you walk by. Most of them have probably already set buds.

If you are a plant scientist & speak Italian, then this a book for you! The review in Corriere della Sera is impressive: "I have never read a scientific essay that is so rigorous, both in its personal and political account" "I challenge anyone not to be moved—to the point of tears" #PlantScience 🧪

It was already known that auxins (surprise!) had a key role controlling the end of flowering, plant menopause. Now we can tell you how and where they act in the inflorescence meristem to control the process. @irenegonzlez.bsky.social www.cell.com/current-biology/fulltext/S0960-9822%2825%2901002-4

Local regulation of auxin-related pathways in the shoot apical meristem plays a major role during proliferative arrest
González-Cuadra et al. show that repression of auxin-related pathways locally in the SAM is key in the control of proliferative arrest. FRUITFULL regulates these pathways to promote meristem arrest. B...

While studying how plants cease flowering we wondered if determinate inflorescences might behave different. Moreover: are fleshy fruits strong sinks that starve the meristem? Arabidopsis did not have the answers, so we turned to 🍅🍅🍅, Curious?👇👇👇 academic.oup.com/plphys/article/199/1/kiaf195/8127772

The quantitative effect of seed production triggers the end of flowering in tomato
Auxin and abscisic acid from tomato seeds act as signals that instruct flower meristems to arrest in a coordinated and quantitative manner.
