A Stochastic Adaptive Dynamics Model for Bacterial Populations with Mutation, Dormancy and Transfer [PDF]
arXiv, 2021 This paper introduces a stochastic adaptive dynamics model for the interplay of several crucial traits and mechanisms in bacterial evolution, namely dormancy, horizontal gene transfer (HGT), mutation and competition. In particular, it combines the recent model of Champagnat, M\'el\'eard and Tran (2021) involving HGT with the model for competition ...

Evaluation of dormancy break in some selected peach (Prunus persica) cultivars
Horticultural Science, 2016 The evaluation of dormancy break based on the number of flower buds in bloom was performed in years 2011-2013 (January-April) for 15 peach cultivars compared to the control cv. Redhaven.

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

Principles of seed banks: complexity emerging from dormancy [PDF]
Nat Commun 12, 4807 (2021), 2020 Across the tree of life, populations have evolved the capacity to contend with suboptimal conditions by engaging in dormancy, whereby individuals enter a reversible state of reduced metabolic activity. The resulting seed banks are complex, storing information and imparting memory that gives rise to multi-scale structures and networks spanning ...

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.

Plants, 2019 The effect of the exogenous hormone and light quality on breaking hypocotyl and epicotyl dormancy was studied. The results showed that the greatest percentage of hypocotyl dormancy breaking was observed with the Murashige and Skoog (MS) medium ...

Co-Contagion Diffusion on Multilayer Networks [PDF]
Applied Network Science. 4.78 (2019), 2019 This study examines the interface of three elements during co-contagion diffusion: the \textbf{synergy} between contagions, the \textbf{dormancy} rate of each individual contagion, and the \textbf{multiplex network topology}. Dormancy is defined as a weaker form of "immunity," where dormant nodes no longer actively participate in diffusion, but are ...

The RNA-seq transcriptome analysis identified genes related to rice seed dormancy
Biologia Plantarum, 2019 Plant hormones play important roles in seed dormancy and dormancy breaking. We measured the hormone content in rice (Oryza sativa L. cv. Nona Bokra) seeds at different stages and with or without imbibition treatment.
