Flower development in plants is a complex process influenced by various intrinsic and extrinsic factors. Hormones like gibberellin (GA) and abscisic acid (ABA) play pivotal roles in regulating this process. In many orchids, including the Chinese Cymbidium, flower bud dormancy is essential for surviving adverse conditions and ensuring timely blooming. Despite its significance, the precise molecular mechanisms underlying floral bud initiation and dormancy remain poorly understood. Based on these challenges, it is crucial to conduct in-depth studies on the hormonal regulation of flower development.
