Understanding the mechanisms behind onion bulb dormancy in relation to the potential for improved onion storage [PDF]
Onion (Allium cepa L.) is the most economically important Allium crop. Onion cultivars adapted for growth in temperate regions require long days for bulb initiation, so the summer crop is stored over-winter.

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

Dormancy in seeds of brazilian cerrado and dense Ombrophilous forest
The Cerrado and the Dense Ombrophilous Forest are important brazilian biomes that together cover more than half of the country's territory. They have a vast and rich plant diversity which often has a block in the germination process called dormancy ...

Environmental Regulation of Weed Seed Dormancy and Germination
Many weeds produce dormant seeds that are unable to complete germination under favourable conditions. There are two types of seed dormancy: primary dormancy (innate dormancy), in which seeds are in a dormant state upon release from the parent plant, and ...
