Abstract: To figure out the potential bottlenecks in terms of the peach production in subtropical area, a comprehensive summary on the research of chilling requirement of peach has been made here. The concept of chilling requirement was elaborated with details, while comparisons of the application effect were made among several chilling requirement calculation models on peach, and the research progress relevant to the chilling requirement of peach was reported from both the physiological and molecular aspects. Accordingly, a final conclusion was found that the two genes of PpDAM5 and PpDAM6 were most likely tied to the differences of peach varieties with different chilling requirements, which could be further utilized to screen peach varieties for chilling requirement breeding in the future.
