Plant Breeding and Seed Science, 2018 A variety of different physical methods are used increasingly frequently to improve the quality of theseeds material. Numerous publications confirm the positive effect of, for example, the magnetic field witha frequency of 50 Hz on the germination of seeds. However, there are no significant reports regarding theimpact of NIR radiation on the growth and

Advanced Science, EarlyView.This study harnesses hydrodynamic flows to generate, confine and stimulate stem cell spheroids, enabling the large‐scale production of extracellular vesicles (EVs). This innovative method not only streamlines spheroid formation and subsequent EV release in a single, integrated process, but also ensures the generation of EVs with enhanced biological ...

Effect of Pansy (Viola x wittrockiana gams) Seeds Colour and Size on their Germination
Notulae Botanicae Horti Agrobotanici Cluj-Napoca, 2008 Four commercial seed lots from the Polish seed companies of pansy (Viola x wittrockiana Gams) with low germination capacity were sorted into 2 size fractions: small and large: below 4 mm long and above 4 mm and 3 colour fractions: yellow, brown and dark,

The Bacillus cereus GerN and GerT protein homologs have distinct roles in spore germination and outgrowth, respectively [PDF]
, 2008 The GerT protein of Bacillus cereus shares 74% amino acid identity with its homolog GerN. The latter is a Na+/H+-K+ 19 antiporter that is required for normal spore germination in inosine.

Soybean Auxin Transporter PIN3 Regulates Nitrate Acquisition to Improve Nitrogen Use and Seed Traits
Advanced Science, EarlyView.Xu et al. discovers that switching off auxin transporters in soybean, PIN3a and PIN3b, disrupts auxin flow; this triggers ARF‐STF3/4 signal cascade to activate the nitrate importer NPF2.13 and soil nitrogen acquisition. Multi‐year field trials show edited soybeans maintain yield with higher oil content, offering a potential genetic route to improve ...
