Evaluation of dormancy break in some selected peach (Prunus persica) cultivars

open access: yesHorticultural 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.

Physical Seed Dormancy in Legumes: Molecular Advances and Perspectives

open access: yesPlants
Physical dormancy of seeds is a form of dormancy due to the presence of an impermeable seed coat layer, and it represents a feature for plants to adapt to environmental changes over an extended period of phylogenetic evolution.

A Two-Stage Culture Method for Zygotic Embryos Effectively Overcomes Constraints Imposed by Hypocotyl and Epicotyl Seed Dormancy in Paeonia ostii ‘Fengdan’

open access: yesPlants, 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 ...

Principles of seed banks and the emergence of complexity from dormancy [PDF]

open access: yesNature Communications, 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.

Evaluating relationships between seed morphological traits and seed dormancy in Chenopodium quinoa Willd.

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2023
IntroductionQuinoa is a high-value, nutritious crop that performs well in variable environments, marginal soils, and in diverse crop rotations. Quinoa’s many attributes make it an ideal crop for supporting human health in global communities and economies.

Genotypic variation of dormancy in wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) : a thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Agricultural Science, Department of Plant Science, Massey University, Palmerston North, New Zealand [PDF]

open access: yes, 1996
Embryo dormancy and α - amylase dormancy are desirable in wheat to minimise pre-harvest sprouting damage. The current work focuses on the embryo and graincoat colour.

Arabidopsis thaliana DOF6 negatively affects germination in non-after ripened seeds and interacts with TCP14 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Seed dormancy prevents seeds from germinating under environmental conditions unfavourable for plant growth and development and constitutes an evolutionary advantage.

The epithelial barrier theory proposes a comprehensive explanation for the origins of allergic and other chronic noncommunicable diseases

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Exposure to common noxious agents (1), including allergens, pollutants, and micro‐nanoplastics, can cause epithelial barrier damage (2) in our body's protective linings. This may trigger an immune response to our microbiome (3). The epithelial barrier theory explains how this process can lead to chronic noncommunicable diseases (4) affecting organs ...

QTL mapping for microtuber dormancy and GA3 content in a diploid potato population

open access: yesBiology Open, 2018
The genetic control of dormancy is poorly understood in most plant species, but dormancy is a prominent feature for the potato industry. We used the microtuber system, in which tubers were produced in vitro and stored at 20°C, to perform quantitative ...

Tumor-reactive immune cells protect against metastatic tumor and induce immunoediting of indolent but not quiescent tumor cells [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Two major barriers to cancer immunotherapy include tumor-induced immune suppression mediated by myeloid-derived suppressor cells and poor immunogenicity of the tumor-expressing self-antigens.
