Environmental Regulation of Weed Seed Dormancy and Germination

open access: yesSeeds, 2023
Many weeds produce dormant seeds that are unable to complete germination under favourable conditions. There are two types of seed dormancy: primary dormancy (innate dormancy), in which seeds are in a dormant state upon release from the parent plant, and ...

Dormancy in seeds of brazilian cerrado and dense Ombrophilous forest

open access: yesBiodiversidade Brasileira, 2023
The Cerrado and the Dense Ombrophilous Forest are important brazilian biomes that together cover more than half of the country's territory. They have a vast and rich plant diversity which often has a block in the germination process called dormancy ...

The Relationship Between Mesenchymal Stem Cells and Tumor Dormancy

open access: yesFrontiers 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.

Dormancy and germination characteristics of Tarenaya hassleriana (Cleomaceae) seeds

open access: yesJournal of Seed Science, 2023
: Elucidating the physiological and ecological mechanisms of seed dormancy and germination is of great significance for species conservation and the application of plant resources. Based on Baskin and Baskin’s classification system for seed dormancy, the

A Perspective on Secondary Seed Dormancy in Arabidopsis thaliana

open access: yesPlants, 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.

Dormancy: There and Back Again

open access: yesMolecular Biology, 2022
Many cells are capable of maintaining viability in a non-dividing state with minimal metabolism under unfavorable conditions. These are germ cells, adult stem cells, and microorganisms. Unfortunately, a resting state, or dormancy, is possible for tuberculosis bacilli in a latent form of the disease and cancer cells, which may later form secondary ...

The Evolutionary Ecology of Dormancy in Nature and in Cancer

open access: yesFrontiers 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

Seed Dormancy and Germination [PDF]

open access: yesThe Arabidopsis Book, 2008
Seed dormancy allows seeds to overcome periods that are unfavourable for seedling established and is therefore important for plant ecology and agriculture. Several processes are known to be involved in the induction of dormancy and in the switch from the dormant to the germinating state.

Dormancy in Metacommunities

open access: yesThe 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.

Seed dormancy in ornamental plants: A review

open access: yesThe 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.
