Facilitating comparable research in seedling functional ecology
Abstract Ecologists have worked to ascribe function to the variation found in plant populations, communities and ecosystems across environments for at least the past century. The vast body of research in functional ecology has drastically improved understanding of how individuals respond to their environment, communities are assembled and ecosystems ...

Genome‐wide association studies for rice seed germination under drought stress using 3VmrMLM
Abstract Improving seed germination under drought stress has the potential to increase crop yield in dry direct‐seeded rice. In this study, a genome‐wide association study (GWAS) was conducted to determine the genetic basis of seed germination under drought stress in a panel of 165 rice accessions using a multi‐locus compressed variance‐component mixed

A framework for the interpretation of temperature effects on dormancy and germination in seed populations showing dormancy [PDF]
Temperature is a key factor affecting both dormancy and germination. In non-dormant seeds, when temperature is within the thermal range permissive for germination, it just regulates germination velocity, while in seeds presenting dormancy it can also be ...

Interchangeable effects of gibberellic acid and temperature on embryo growth, seed germination and epicotyl emergence in Ribes multiflorum ssp. sandalioticum (Grossulariaceae) [PDF]
Morphophysiological dormancy was investigated in seeds of Ribes multiflorum Kitex Roem et Schult. ssp. sandalioticum Arrigoni, a rare mountain species endemic to Sardinia (Italy). There were no differences in imbibition rates between intact and scarified

Variation in seed dormancy quantitative trait loci in Arabidopsis thaliana originating from one site [PDF]
A Quantitative Trait Locus (QTL) analysis was performed using two novel Recombinant Inbred Line (RIL) populations, derived from the progeny between two Arabidopsis thaliana genotypes collected at the same site in Kyoto (Japan) crossed with the reference ...

Characterization of PDF1 and its interaction with DELAY OF GERMINATION1 (DOG1) in the control of seed dormancy in Arabidopsis thaliana [PDF]
Seed dormancy is defined as the incapacity of a viable seed to germinate under favourable conditions. It is established during seed maturation and reaches high levels in mature dry seeds.

Characterisation of dormancy cycling responses to environmental signals in contrasting Arabidopsis thaliana ecotypes [PDF]
Seed dormancy is an important trait refined by evolution, to aid survival in adverse environments and to time germination and thereby select the correct habitat and climate space for subsequent plant growth and reproduction.
