PHYSIOLOGICAL CLASSIFICATION OF DORMANCIES IN INSECTS
The Canadian Entomologist, 1971AbstractA new classification of dormancy in insects is proposed on the basis of the evolutionary nature of dormancy, its synchronization with the aetiology of the species for their phenological advantage, the nature of ecological adversity, and the consequent physiological and biochemical adjustments. The roles of the above factors in the induction and

THE PHYSIOLOGY OF DORMANCY IN THE SWEETCLOVER WEEVIL
Canadian Journal of Zoology, 1956The physiology of the overwintering adult stage of Sitona cylindricollis (Fahr.), the sweetclover weevil, has been examined. It has been shown that the dormancy is characterized by a drop in oxygen consumption, a cessation of development in the reproductive organs, and a slight rise in fat content; and that the termination of dormancy is characterized

Physiological Ecology of Seed Dormancy and Longevity
1996Studies 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, 2004At 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 ...

After-ripening is a common method used for dormancy release in rice. In this study, the rice variety Jiucaiqing (Oryza sativa L. subsp. japonica) was used to determine dormancy release following different after-ripening times (1, 2 and 3 months ...

Assessment of Dormancy Level and Germination Ability of Seeds with Physiological Dormancy
Germination test is fundamental and commonly used technique for seed dormancy and germination studies, and proper assessment of dormancy level and germination ability of a given set of seeds is prerequisite for most of the studies. However, germination is very sensitive to imbibition conditions, and dormancy development is also sensitive to growth ...Lipeng Zheng +2 more

Bulb Dormancy and Storage Physiology
2018In reports on onion bulb dormancy the workers seemed generally to follow the latter definition of Emilson but the use of the terms rest and dormancy is very complicated and sometimes confusing. Aoba, T. made a morphological study of bulb formation in onion.
