TGF-β2 dictates disseminated tumour cell fate in target organs through TGF-β-RIII and p38α/β signalling [PDF]
, 2013 In patients, non-proliferative disseminated tumour cells (DTCs) can persist in the bone marrow (BM) while other organs (such as lung) present growing metastasis.

Experimental Agriculture, 2001 The tubers of yam, principally those of Dioscorea rotundata (white Guinea yam) and D. alata (water or greater yam), are important staple foods and sources of carbohydrate in West Africa. Yams are grown in diverse environments – from the high-rainfall forest zone on the coast to the seasonally arid savannas of West Africa, that is in situations in which

When dormancy fuels tumour relapse
Communications Biology, 2021 Tumour recurrence is a serious impediment to cancer treatment, but the mechanisms involved are poorly understood. The most frequently used anti-tumour therapies—chemotherapy and radiotherapy—target highly proliferative cancer cells.

Sowing seeds for the future: the need for establishing protocols for the study of seed dormancy
Acta Botânica Brasílica, 2013 Seed dormancy is a widely misunderstood plant trait. In several research areas, a lack of germination is wrongly assumed to result from seed dormancy. In an attempt to standardize seed dormancy research and improve communication among seed scientists, a ...

Seed Dormancy in Hairy Vetch (Vicia villosa Roth) Is Influenced by Genotype and Environment
Agronomy, 2020 Seed dormancy complicates the agricultural use of many legume species. Understanding the genetic and environmental drivers of seed dormancy is necessary for advancing crop improvement for legumes, such as Vicia villosa.

The Plant CellSeeds are unique time capsules that can switch between 2 complex and highly interlinked stages: seed dormancy and germination. Dormancy contributes to the survival of plants because it allows to delay germination to optimal conditions. The switch between

The signalling role of ROS in the regulation of seed germination and dormancy.
Biochemical Journal, 2019 Reactive oxygen species (ROS) are versatile compounds which can have toxic or signalling effects in a wide range living organisms, including seeds. They have been reported to play a pivotal role in the regulation of seed germination and dormancy but ...

A Conceptual Framework for Winter Dormancy in Deciduous Trees
, 2020 The perennial life strategy of temperate trees relies on establishing a dormant stage during winter to survive unfavorable conditions. To overcome this dormant stage, trees require cool (i.e., chilling) temperatures as an environmental cue.
