Physiological Ecology of Seed Dormancy and Longevity

1996
Studies of seed biology represent a sizable part of existing botanical research due to the importance of seeds for plant propagation, forest regeneration, and conservation. From an ecological perspective, knowledge of plant community structure, dynamics, and succession must include information about plant reproduction, dispersal, and establishment in ...

Physiological regulation of potato tuber dormancy

American Journal of Potato Research, 2004
At harvest, potato (Solanum tuberosum L.) tubers are dormant and will not sprout. As the period of postharvest storage is extended, tuber dormancy is broken and sprout growth commences. The loss of tuber dormancy and onset of sprout growth is accompanied by numerous biochemical changes, many of which are detrimental to the nutritional and processing ...

Physiology and Storage of Bulbs: Concepts and Nature of Dormancy in Bulbs

1983
Bulbous plants constitute a group of a very great diversity, as much in their geographical origin as in their biological characteristics. Moreover, the term “bulbous plants” is generally used in a very broad sense and includes plants whose vegetative multiplication organs are true bulbs, corms, rhizomes and even tubers and tuberous roots.

Physiology of Seed Dormancy in Heliotropium eichwaldi Steud

Biochemie und Physiologie der Pflanzen, 1977
Summary Seed dormancy in Heliotropium eichwaldi is dependent on the endogenous level of promoter and inhibitor. These seeds posses a water-soluble inhibitor requiring light for its activity. Indirect evidence also showed the presence of one or more light-activated inhibitors which were not water-soluble. The seed dormancy in H.

Physiology of dormancy and germination in the propagules of cryptogamic plants

1965
Although the scope of this chapter is very wide, including as it does all of the Cryptogams, there are only few groups in which enough work has been done to warrant extensive treatment. For this reason, the fungi will be covered in most detail while shorter reviews of the work in the other groups will be provided.

Physiology of Cynoglossum officinale seed dormancy and germination

2009
The role of the seed coat in inhibiting seed germination of Cynoglossum officinale, a rangeland weed in British Columbia, was studied. Pricking, acid and mechanical scarification increased germination significantly. These treatments increased O₂ uptake only slightly, with the exception of an initial burst in O₂ uptake by seeds mechanically scarified ...
