Germination of dimorphic seeds of Suaeda aralocaspica in response to light and salinity conditions during and after cold stratification [PDF]
PeerJ, 2017 Cold stratification is a requirement for seed dormancy breaking in many species, and thus it is one of the important factors for the regulation of timing of germination. However, few studies have examined the influence of various environmental conditions

A role for jasmonates in the release of dormancy by cold stratification in wheat. [PDF]
J Exp Bot, 2016 Hydration at low temperatures, commonly referred to as cold stratification, is widely used for releasing dormancy and triggering germination in a wide range of species including wheat. However, the molecular mechanism that underlies its effect on germination has largely remained unknown.

Cold-Moist Stratification Improves Germination in a Temperate Terrestrial Orchid [PDF]
Castanea, 2016 ABSTRACT Seed dormancy is a common evolutionary adaptation in temperate plant taxa. Dormancy mechanisms can prevent seeds from germinating at inopportune times, such as a cold period. We report the influence of pregermination stratification treatments on in vitro seed germination and seedling development in Platanthera chapmanii, a rare temperate ...

Effect of cold stratification on the temperature range for germination of Pinus koraiensis
Journal of Forestry Research, 2022 AbstractGermination at low spring temperatures may offer a competitive advantage for the growth and survival of plant species inhabiting temperate forest ecosystems. Pinus koraiensis is a dominant species in temperate forests of northeastern China. Its seeds exhibit primary morphophysiological dormancy following dispersal in autumn, limiting natural or
