Seed moisture content can be used to accelerate dormancy release during after-ripening of Urochloa humidicola cv. Llanero spikelets [PDF]
: Increased demand for livestock products is leading to research on more productive pastures adapted to different environments. Urochloa humidicola is a species adapted to low-fertility conditions and to environments occasionally subjected to temporary ...

Chilling-dependent release of seed and bud dormancy in peach associates to common changes in gene expression. [PDF]
Reproductive meristems and embryos display dormancy mechanisms in specialized structures named respectively buds and seeds that arrest the growth of perennial plants until environmental conditions are optimal for survival.

Environmental Regulation of Weed Seed Dormancy and Germination
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 ...

Stratification requirements for seed dormancy alleviation in a wetland weed. [PDF]
Echinochloaoryzicola(syn.E. phyllopogon) is an exotic weed of California rice paddies that has evolved resistance to multiple herbicides. Elimination of seedlingsthroughcertain weed control methods can limit the spread of this weed, but is contingent on ...

Medical Oxygen Concentrators for Releasing Seed Dormancy
ABSTRACTA new method is demonstrated for using concentrated oxygen (O2 gas) to release seed dormancy. Concentrated O2 gas in air is known to release seed dormancy in some seeds, including some foxtail (Setaria) species. New medical equipment makes O2 gas easier to work with than before, so laboratories working with dormant seeds can now use ...

SAN 9789: A Seed Dormancy Releasing Chemical
Summary The ability of the herbicide SAN 9789 to release primary as well as different forms of secondary dormancy in lettuce seeds ( Lactuca sativa cv. Grand Rapids) was examined. Primary-, thermo-, osmo-, and far-red-dormant seeds treated with 28 μg/ml SAN 9789 in the dark at 25°C, germinated to 88, 61, 52 and 31 % respectively.

Distinct gibberellin functions during and after grapevine bud dormancy release [PDF]
The molecular mechanism regulating dormancy release in grapevine buds is as yet unclear. It has been hypothesized that (i) abscisic acid (ABA) represses bud-meristem activity; (ii) perturbation of respiration induces an interplay between ethylene and ABA metabolism, which leads to removal of repression; and (iii) gibberellin (GA)-mediated growth is ...
