Nanopriming technology for enhancing germination and starch metabolism of aged rice seeds using phytosynthesized silver nanoparticles

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2017
Application of nanomaterials for agriculture is relatively new as compared to their use in biomedical and industrial sectors. In order to promote sustainable nanoagriculture, biocompatible silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) have been synthesized through green ...

Effects of environment, life-history and phylogeny on germination strategy of 789 angiosperms species on the eastern Tibetan Plateau

open access: yesEcological Indicators, 2021
Germination strategies vary widely among species and significantly influence individual fitness and community diversity. Germination strategies are known to be influenced by environmental conditions, life-history traits and evolutionary history, but how ...

Spore Germination

open access: yesMicrobiology Spectrum, 2015
ABSTRACT Despite being resistant to a variety of environmental insults, the bacterial endospore can sense the presence of small molecules and respond by germinating, losing the specialized structures of the dormant spore, and resuming active metabolism, before outgrowing into vegetative cells.

The signalling role of ROS in the regulation of seed germination and dormancy.

open access: yesBiochemical Journal, 2019
Reactive oxygen species (ROS) are versatile compounds which can have toxic or signalling effects in a wide range living organisms, including seeds. They have been reported to play a pivotal role in the regulation of seed germination and dormancy but ...

Post harvest maturation of the selected spring barley varieties in 2011.

open access: yesKvasný průmysl, 2012
There were considerable differences amoug all 2011 varieties studied, three weeks after achieving full maturity. Values of germination energy varied from 69-93 %. Post-harvest maturation was the slowest in the varieties Aksamit and Radegast.

Evaluation of the effects of drought stress of mother plants on some seed germination indices of Satureja hortensis [PDF]

open access: yesمدیریت بیابان, 2017
Seed germination indices can be affected by drought stress in ripening stage of seeds on mother plant.  In this study, four water stress treatments (100, 75, 50 and 25% of field capacity (FC)) were imposed during seed maturation of Satureja hortensis ...

Molecular Mechanisms Underlying Abscisic Acid/Gibberellin Balance in the Control of Seed Dormancy and Germination in Cereals

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2018
Seed dormancy is an adaptive trait that does not allow the germination of an intact viable seed under favorable environmental conditions. Non-dormant seeds or seeds with low level of dormancy can germinate readily under optimal environmental conditions ...

The seed germination spectrum of alpine plants: a global meta-analysis.

open access: yesNew Phytologist, 2020
Assumptions about the germination ecology of alpine plants are presently based on individual species and local studies. A current challenge is to synthesize, at the global level, the alpine seed ecological spectrum.
