Dormancy of safflower seeds: effect of storage and cold stratification [PDF]
Safflower seeds exhibit dormancy soon after dispersion from the mother plant, making it impossible to sow newly harvested seeds. Thus, the aim of the present study was to evaluate breaking the dormancy of safflower seeds during storage associated with ...

Comparing Non-Thermal Plasma and Cold Stratification: Which Pre-Sowing Treatment Benefits Wild Plant Emergence? [PDF]
Meadow restoration and creation projects have faced a lack of local seed diversity due to the limited availability of seed sources. Non-thermal plasma technologies are being developed for agriculture and do not cause damage to heat-sensitive biological ...

Changes in oxidative patterns during dormancy break by warm and cold stratification in seeds of an edible fruit tree. [PDF]
The transition from seed dormancy to germination is triggered by environmental factors, and in pomegranate (Punica granatum) seeds higher germination percentages are achieved by warm + cold stratification rather than by cold stratification alone.

Length of cold stratification period affects germination in green alder (Alnus viridis(Chaix) DC. subsp.crispa(Aiton) Turrill) seed collected from northwestern Alberta [PDF]
Alnus viridis (Chaix) DC. subsp. crispa (Aiton) Turrill (Betulaceae), commonly known as green alder or mountain alder, is a boreal shrub used to revegetate disturbed lands because of its ability to persist and flourish in adverse conditions.
