Genetic Aspects and Molecular Causes of Seed Longevity in Plants—A Review

Plants, 2022
Seed longevity is the most important trait related to the management of gene banks because it governs the regeneration cycle of seeds. Thus, seed longevity is a quantitative trait.

Why Seed Physiology Is Important for Genebanking [PDF]

Plants, 2020
Genebank management is a field in its own right; it is multifaceted, requiring a diverse set of skills and knowledge. Seed physiology is one area that is critical to the successful operation of seed genebanks, requiring understanding of seed quality during development and maturation, seed dormancy and germination, and seed longevity in storage of the ...

Indian plant germplasm on the global platter: an analysis.

PLoS ONE, 2015
Food security is a global concern amongst scientists, researchers and policy makers. No country is self-sufficient to address food security issues independently as almost all countries are inter-dependent for availability of plant genetic resources (PGR)
