Abstract Flower bud differentiation is a key component of plant blooming biology and understanding how it works is vital
for flowering regulation and plant genetic breeding, increasing the number and quality of flowering. Red soil is the
most widely covered soil type in the world, and it is also the most suitable soil type for crape myrtle planting. The
flower buds of crape myrtle (Lagerstroemia indica) planted in red soil were employed as experimental materials in
this study, and the distinct periods of differentiation were identified using stereomicroscopy and paraffin sectioning. We optimized the steps of dehydration, transparency, embedding, sectioning and… More >
