Presowing treatments for breaking seed dormancy of Hovenia dulcis Thunb. [PDF]
Glasnik Šumarskog Fakulteta: Univerzitet u Beogradu, 2006 The aim of the experiment was to determine the optimal presowing treatment for breaking seed dormancy of Japanese raisin tree (Hovenia dulcis Thunb.), a very rare exotic species introduced to the Mediterranean parts of Serbia and Montenegro.

Mechanism of endocarp-imposed constraints of germination of Lannea microcarpa seeds [PDF]
, 2008 Lannea microcarpa, a multipurpose tree species from the dry African savanna, sheds seeds that often display inhibition of germination. The underlying mechanism was investigated using seeds processed from fully matured fruits collected from natural stands

Response of human skin to esthetic scarification [PDF]
Burns, 2014 This study was undertaken to investigate changes in RNA expression in previously healthy adult human skin following thermal injury induced by contact with hot metal that was undertaken as part of esthetic scarification, a body modification practice. Subjects were recruited to have pre-injury skin and serial wound biopsies performed. 4 mm punch biopsies
