The Evolutionary Ecology of Dormancy in Nature and in Cancer
Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2021 Dormancy is an inactive period of an organism’s life cycle that permits it to survive through phases of unfavorable conditions in highly variable environments. Dormancy is not binary. There is a continuum of dormancy phenotypes that represent some degree

The Relationship Between Mesenchymal Stem Cells and Tumor Dormancy
Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2021 Tumor dormancy, a state of tumor, is clinically undetectable and the outgrowth of dormant tumor cells into overt metastases is responsible for cancer-associated deaths.

Autophagy and Cancer Dormancy [PDF]
Frontiers in Oncology, 2021 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 Perspective on Secondary Seed Dormancy in Arabidopsis thaliana
Plants, 2020 Primary seed dormancy is the phenomenon whereby seeds newly shed by the mother plant are unable to germinate under otherwise favorable conditions for germination.

Seed dormancy in ornamental plants: A review
The Indian Journal of Agricultural Sciences, 2016 Seed is the first input used in transfer of genetic traits in ornamental plants production. Seed dormancy is a physiological phenomenon in plants, which is caused by external or internal factors, and prevents seed germination, even in optimal conditions.

Morphological and anatomical changes during dormancy break of the seeds of Fritillaria taipaiensis
Plant Signaling & Behavior, 2023 Fritillaria taipaiensis P. Y. Li is the most suitable species planted at low altitudes among other species used as Tendrilleaf Fritillary Bulb, whose seeds embracing the morphological and physiological dormancy need to experience a long-dormant time from

The American Naturalist, 2018 Although metacommunity ecology has improved our understanding of how dispersal affects community structure and dynamics across spatial scales, it has yet to adequately account for dormancy. Dormancy is a reversible state of reduced metabolic activity that enables temporal dispersal within the metacommunity.

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2015 Seed dormancy controls germination and plays a critical role in regulating the beginning of the life cycle of plants. Seed dormancy is established and maintained during seed maturation and is gradually broken during dry storage (after-ripening).

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2016 Dormancy inhibits seed and bud growth of perennial plants until the environmental conditions are optimal for survival. Previous studies indicated that certain co-regulation pathways exist in seed and bud dormancy. In our study, we found that seed and bud
