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

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 ...

Release of Arabidopsis seed dormancy by cold atmospheric plasma relies on cytoplasmic glass transition [PDF]

open access: yesJ. Phys. D: Appl. Phys. (2023), 2023
When mature Arabidopsis thaliana seeds are dormant, their germination is prevented in apparently favourable conditions. This primary dormancy can be released during seed dry storage through a process called after-ripening whose duration can last several months.

Tumor cell dormancy [PDF]

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, 2017
Metastasis is the primary cause of death in cancer patients and current treatments fail to provide durable responses. Efforts to treat metastatic disease are hindered by the fact that metastatic cells often remain dormant for prolonged intervals of years, or even decades.

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.

Regulation of Seed Dormancy and Germination Mechanisms in a Changing Environment

open access: yesInternational Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2021
Environmental conditions are the basis of plant reproduction and are the critical factors controlling seed dormancy and germination. Global climate change is currently affecting environmental conditions and changing the reproduction of plants from seeds.

Morphological and anatomical changes during dormancy break of the seeds of Fritillaria taipaiensis

open access: yesPlant 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

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.
