Seed dormancy and germination

Current Opinion in Plant Biology, 2002
Seed dormancy and germination are complex adaptive traits of higher plants that are influenced by a large number of genes and environmental factors. Studies of genetics and physiology have shown the important roles of the plant hormones abscisic acid and gibberellin in the regulation of dormancy and germination.

Dormancy in the Tumor Microenvironment

2021
Tumor cells frequently disseminate to distant organ sites, where they encounter permissive or restrictive environments that enable them to grow and colonize or enter a dormant state. Tumor dormancy is not strictly defined, but generally describes a tumor cell that is non-proliferative or in a state of balanced equilibrium, in which the proliferation ...

On dormancy strategies in tardigrades

Journal of Insect Physiology, 2011
In this review we analyze the dormancy strategies of metazoans inhabiting "hostile to life" habitats, which have a strong impact on their ecology and in particular on the traits of their life history. Tardigrades are here considered a model animal, being aquatic organisms colonizing terrestrial habitats.

Dormancy in peppers

Scientia Horticulturae, 1981
Abstract Studies were conducted on 19 cultivars representing 4 species of Capsicum to determine the expression of dormancy in seed germination and emergence. Differences in dormancy were found among cultivars. Fruit age was shown to affect dormancy. Warm, dry storage shortened the length of dormancy while still maintaining a high level of emergence.

Dormancy in Tropical Insects

Annual Review of Entomology, 1986
Diapause is frequently viewed as a developmental strategy unique to insects of the temperate zone. My primary objective in this review is to dispell this myth by presenting evidence for the widespread existence of diapause among tropical species. Although the environmental regulators are still poorly defined, I attempt to identify factors implicated in

Dormancy In Bacteria

Journal of Infectious Diseases, 1925
ject is given by Chesney.1 The prolonged quiescence or dormancy shown by a few cells in a transplant, while of considerable more importance to the experimental bacteriologist than the lag, has escaped serious investigation until recently. Burke 2 described the prolonged dormancy of a small percentage of the spores of CI.

Dormancy

2009
Publisher Summary This chapter discusses dormancy, which is an inactive state associated with metabolic depression and arrested development that promotes the survival of insects during periods of harsh environmental conditions, including high or low temperatures or moisture conditions and reduced food quality or availability.

Dormancy: Manifestations and Causes

2001
During their life cycles, plants are exposed to periods of stress caused by low or high temperatures, drought, or other environmental factors. In the course of evolution, complex defense mechanisms have developed for protection against such stresses. One such mechanism is dormancy.
