Expression Level of Bacillus subtilis Germinant Receptors Determines the Average Rate but Not the Heterogeneity of Spore Germination [PDF]
ABSTRACT Germination of Bacillus subtilis spores can be triggered by the binding of specific nutrients, called germinants, to germinant receptors (GRs) in the spore's inner membrane. This interaction eventually initiates, with variable time delays, the release of dipicolinic acid and cations from the spore

Seed Pretreatment and Germination Rates of Parkia biglobosa
Parkia biglobosa (African locust bean) is a versatile leguminous tree with high ecological, nutritional, and economic importance in Sub-Saharan Africa. However, seed dormancy caused by a stiff seed coat limits its propagation. Aim: This study investigated the effects of several pretreatment procedures on P.

Chemical Stimulation of Germination Rate in Aged Tomato Seeds1
Abstract The germination rate of 10-year-old seeds of tomato, Lycopersicon esculentum Mill., line Mo. 17-St-23 was significantly increased by continuous soak treatments of GA 3 (0, 10 ppm) + kinetin (1, 10, 50 ppm) + KNO

Improved clonality assessment in germinal centre/post-germinal centre non-Hodgkin’s lymphomas with high rates of somatic hypermutation [PDF]
Background: PCR detects clonal rearrangements of the Ig gene in lymphoproliferative disorders. False negativity occurs in germinal centre/post-germinal centre lymphomas (GC/PGCLs) as they display a high rate of somatic hypermutation (SHM), which causes primer mismatching when detecting Ig rearrangements by PCR.
