A RECENT communication1 suggests that high results in germination tests on barley, carried out in moist sand for 7–10 days, necessarily indicate the absence of ‘dormancy’ in the sample. It further claims that the ‘dormant’ condition in barley can be eliminated by desiccation.

Autophagy and Cancer Dormancy [PDF]
Metastasis and relapse account for the great majority of cancer-related deaths. Most metastatic lesions are micro metastases that have the capacity to remain in a non-dividing state called “dormancy” for months or even years. Commonly used anticancer drugs generally target actively dividing cancer cells. Therefore, cancer cells that remain in a dormant

A Modified Method to Assess Secondary Dormancy in the Seeds of Different Rapeseed Lines and Cultivars [PDF]
The exposure of seeds to undesirable soil conditions induces secondary dormancy and this causes many problems for seed producers. Assessing seed secondary dormancy potential is an important factor in developing rapeseed lines and cultivars.
