Expression profiles of Md14–3-3 s during the floral transition phase under 6-BA treatment, and glucose and sucrose treatment. For the 6-BA and glucose treatments, RNA-seq datasets for the expression profiles were retrieved from NCBI Sequence Read Archive (SRA) datasets (SRR6510620 [47] and SRP226830, respectively). For sucrose treatment (RNA-seq datasets not shared online), trees were sprayed twice at 29 and 36 days after full bloom (DAFB) with 15,000 and 20,000 mg L^− 1 sucrose. Water was used as control. Samples of the terminal buds of the short shoots (< 5 cm) were collected at three time points (30, 50, and 70 DAFB) during floral transition. FPKM values were used to generate their expression profiles. The diagram was drawn using Heml 1.0 software. For other details, see Additional file 5: Table S3
