Sentence examples for synchronous flowering from inspiring English sources

The drought, lasting from 2000 to 2004, corresponded to a shift to earlier mean flowering time in both populations, causing an abbreviated growing season and resulting in more synchronous flowering times between the populations following the drought (Franks et al. 2007; Franks and Weis 2009).
