Beta-Amylase and Phosphatidic Acid Involved in Recalcitrant Seed Germination of Chinese Chestnut [PDF]
Chinese chestnut (Castanea mollissima), a species with recalcitrant seeds, is an important source of nuts and forest ecosystem services. The germination rate of recalcitrant seeds is low in natural habitats and decreases under conditions of desiccation ...

Evolution of research on recalcitrant seeds [PDF]
Some comments about seeds that show sensitivity to desiccation and short viability period, called recalcitrants, were made. Further studies showed that there was a gradient of sensitivity to desiccation and an intermediate class was proposed.

Implications of the lack of desiccation tolerance in recalcitrant seeds [PDF]
A suite of interacting processes and mechanisms enables tolerance of desiccation and storage (conservation) of orthodox seeds in the dry state. While this is a long-term option under optimised conditions, dry orthodox seeds are not immortal, with life ...

Photosynthetic pigments in developing seeds of Acer platanoides and Acer pseudoplatanus [PDF]
Photosynthetic pigments were investigated in developing and dried seeds of desiccation-tolerant (orthodox) Acer platanoides and desiccation-sensitive (recalcitrant) Acer pseudoplatanus.

Cryopreservation of Medicinal Plant Seeds: Strategies for Genetic Diversity Conservation and Sustainability [PDF]
The depletion of medicinal plant resources leads to the irreversible loss of their genetic diversity. The preservation of medicinal plant germplasm using cryobanks is crucial for maintaining the sustainability of these resources.
