Seed dormancy cycling in Arabidopsis: chromatin remodelling and regulation of DOG1 in response to seasonal environmental signals. [PDF]
Plant J, 2015 The involvement of chromatin remodelling in dormancy cycling in the soil seed bank (SSB) is poorly understood. Natural variation between the winter and summer annual Arabidopsis ecotypes Cvi and Bur was exploited to investigate the expression of genes ...

Temperature, light and nitrate sensing coordinate Arabidopsis seed dormancy cycling, resulting in winter and summer annual phenotypes. [PDF]
Plant J, 2013 Seeds use environmental cues to sense the seasons and their surroundings to initiate the plants life cycle. Dormancy cycling underlying this process is extensively described, but the molecular mechanism is largely unknown.

Representation of Dormant and Active Microbial Dynamics for Ecosystem Modeling [PDF]
PLOS ONE, 2014, 9(2): e89252, 2013 Dormancy is an essential strategy for microorganisms to cope with environmental stress. However, global ecosystem models typically ignore microbial dormancy, resulting in major model uncertainties. To facilitate the consideration of dormancy in these large-scale models, we propose a new microbial physiology component that works for a wide range of ...

Dormência em sementes de plantas daninhas como mecanismo de sobrevivência: breve revisão Weed seed dormancy as a survival mechanism: brief review [PDF]
Planta Daninha, 2008 Um dos principais mecanismos de sobrevivência das plantas daninhas em ambientes constantemente perturbados é a alta produção de sementes. Essas possuem geralmente algum mecanismo de dormência, o qual contribui para a perpetuação de espécies interferentes

Plant developmental stage drives the assembly and functional adaptability of endophytic microbial communities [PDF]
Frontiers in MicrobiologyIntroductionThe seeds of Amorphophallus muelleri represent a unique category of herbaceous seeds that arise from triploid apomixis. They necessitate an exceptionally protracted maturation phase of 8 months, followed by a dormancy period of 4 months ...

Bud dormancy evolution in apple genotypes with contrasting chilling requirements
Revista Brasileira de Fruticultura, 2022 This work evaluates how thermal regimes with constant or oscillating temperatures affect the onset and overcome of endodormancy in apple buds with low (‘Castel Gala’) and high (‘Royal Gala’) chilling requirements.
