Spatial specificity of metabolism regulation of abscisic acid-imposed seed germination inhibition in Korean pine (Pinus koraiensis sieb et zucc)

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science
IntroductionAbscisic acid (ABA) can negatively regulate seed germination, but the mechanisms of ABA-mediated metabolism modulation are not well understood.

The Evaluation of Allelopathic Effects of Verbascum cheiranthifolium Boiss. var. asperulum (Boiss.) Murb. and Salvia limbata C. A. Mey. Extracts on Zea mays L. and Portulaca oleraceae L. Seed Germination

open access: yesTürkiye Tarımsal Araştırmalar Dergisi, 2017
There is a need for studies on allelopathy, which is an anternative way of fighting, instead of herbicides and t heir harmful effects on environment. For this purpose, water and methanol extracts of Verbascum cheiranthifolium var.

The mechanics of Arabidopsis seed germination [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Germination is defined as the protrusion of the embryonic radicle through the seed coat layers (endosperm and testa). As the radicle elongates, the testa ruptures, followed by rupture of the endosperm.

Soybean seed coat properties as determinants of natto and sprout quality

open access: yesJournal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract BACKGROUND Improving breeding efficiency for superior soybean (Glycine max (L.) Merr.) germplasm used in natto and sprouts requires understanding how seed coat properties relate to quality and functional traits. METHODS We measured seed weight, water uptake, and sprout length and thickness across various genotypes tested at different locations

Early carbon mobilization and radicle protrusion in maize germination [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Experimental Botany, 2012
Considerable amounts of information is available on the complex carbohydrates that are mobilized and utilized by the seed to support early seedling development. These events occur after radicle has protruded from the seed. However, scarce information is available on the role of the endogenous soluble carbohydrates from the embryo in the first hours of ...

Selenium biofortification of pea (Pisum sativum L.) microgreens through seed priming: Effects on agronomic performance and nutritional quality

open access: yesJournal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract BACKGROUND Selenium (Se) deficiency is a widespread nutritional problem. Agronomic biofortification of microgreens through seed nutripriming is a promising approach to enhance Se intake. Microgreens, comprising nutrient‐dense foods that can be produced year‐round, are ideal targets for biofortification and may help alleviate malnutrition. This
