Identification of the Potential Genes Regulating Seed Germination Speed in Maize [PDF]

Plants, 2022
Seed germination is the crucial stage in plant life cycle. Rapid and uniform germination plays an essential role in plant development and grain yield improvement.

Factors Determining Genotypic Variation in the Speed of Rice Germination [PDF]

Agronomy, 2021
Rapid germination is important for both direct seeded rice in the field and for the production of germinated brown rice for healthy food. This study aims to evaluate genotypic differences in germination speed and identify characteristics that determine ...

Herbivore kairomones affect germination speed, seedling growth, and herbivory. [PDF]

Oecologia
Abstract Seeds and seedlings are particularly vulnerable to herbivory. Unlike mature plants, which can wait until herbivory is experienced to induce defense, seeds and seedlings face mortality if they wait. Slug mucus functions as a kairomone, a non-attack-related substance emitted by consumers that is detected by

Cryptic Genetic Variation for Arabidopsis thaliana Seed Germination Speed in a Novel Salt Stress Environment. [PDF]

G3 (Bethesda), 2016
Abstract The expansion of species ranges frequently necessitates responses to novel environments. In plants, the ability of seeds to disperse to marginal areas relies in part to its ability to germinate under stressful conditions. Here we examine the genetic architecture of Arabidopsis thaliana germination speed under a novel, saline ...

Arabidopsis seed germination speed is controlled by SNL histone deacetylase-binding factor-mediated regulation of AUX1. [PDF]

Nat Commun, 2016
AbstractHistone acetylation is known to affect the speed of seed germination, but the molecular regulatory basis of this remains ambiguous. Here we report that loss of function of two histone deacetylase-binding factors, SWI-INDEPENDENT3 (SIN3)-LIKE1 (SNL1) and SNL2, results in accelerated radicle protrusion and growth during seed germination.

Seasonality, dispersal modes, and optimal germination times modulate the fruiting of tropical tree species [PDF]

Rodriguésia, 2023
We investigated the associations of seasonality, dispersal modes and seed germination speeds with the fruiting of Clusia nemorosa, Pleroma fissinervium, and Vochysia pyramidalis in a gallery forest, Chapada Diamantina, Brazil.

Soil Type Influences Novel “Milpa” Isolates of Trichoderma virens and Aspergillus tubingensis That Promote Solubilization, Mineralization, and Phytoabsorption of Phosphorus in Capsicum annuum L.

Journal of Fungi, 2022
The Capsicum genus has significant economic importance since it is cultivated and consumed worldwide for its flavor and pungent properties. In 2021, Mexico produced 3.3 billion tons on 45,000 hectares which yielded USD 2 billion in exports to the USA ...
