Molecular Mechanisms Underlying Abscisic Acid/Gibberellin Balance in the Control of Seed Dormancy and Germination in Cereals

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2018
Seed dormancy is an adaptive trait that does not allow the germination of an intact viable seed under favorable environmental conditions. Non-dormant seeds or seeds with low level of dormancy can germinate readily under optimal environmental conditions ...

Seed Dormancy Release and Germination Requirements of Cinnamomum migao, an Endangered and Rare Woody Plant in Southwest China

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2022
Seed dormancy is a complex adaptive trait of plants that are influenced by several physiological and environmental factors. The endangered plant Cinnamomum migao is also known to exhibit seed dormancy and low germination, which may influence its ...

Hormonal Orchestration of Bud Dormancy Cycle in Deciduous Woody Perennials

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2019
Woody perennials enter seasonal dormancy to avoid unfavorable environmental conditions. Plant hormones are the critical mediators regulating this complex process, which is subject to the influence of many internal and external factors.

Drivers of vegetative dormancy across herbaceous perennial plant species

open access: yesEcology Letters, 2018
AbstractVegetative dormancy, that is the temporary absence of aboveground growth for ≥ 1 year, is paradoxical, because plants cannot photosynthesise or flower during dormant periods. We test ecological and evolutionary hypotheses for its widespread persistence. We show that dormancy has evolved numerous times.

Dormancy and reactivation of the seed and its microbiome: a holobiont perspective [PDF]

open access: yesmSystems
Desiccation-tolerant seeds provide an intriguing system for studying microbial dormancy, which includes reversible inactivation and reactivation in response to stress.

The role of light in regulating seed dormancy and germination.

open access: yesJournal of Integrative Plant Biology, 2020
Seed dormancy is an adaptive trait in plants. Breaking seed dormancy determines the timing of germination and is, thereby essential for ensuring plant survival and agricultural production.

The grain yield modulator miR156 regulates seed dormancy through the gibberellin pathway in rice

open access: yesNature Communications, 2019
The widespread agricultural problem of pre-harvest sprouting (PHS) could potentially be overcome by improving seed dormancy. Here, we report that miR156, an important grain yield regulator, also controls seed dormancy in rice.

Seed dormancy loss from dry after-ripening is associated with increasing gibberellin hormone levels in Arabidopsis thaliana

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2023
IntroductionThe seeds of many plants are dormant and unable to germinate at maturity, but gain the ability to germinate through after-ripening during dry storage.

Effect of physical and chemical treatments on breaking seed dormancy of datura (Datura stramonium L.) [PDF]

open access: yesعلوم و فناوری بذر ایران, 2021
Datura is an important medicinal plant for production of various alkaloids. Seed dormancy and the problem of germination is the most important barrier to produce this plant. In order to solve the germination problem in this important medicinal plant, the
