Experimental rice seed aging under elevated oxygen pressure: Methodology and mechanism [PDF]
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2022 Seed aging during storage results in loss of vigor and germination ability due to the accumulation of damage by oxidation reactions. Experimental aging tests, for instance to study genetic variation, aim to mimic natural aging in a shorter timeframe.

Integrated Analysis of miRNAome and Transcriptome Identify Regulators of Elm Seed Aging [PDF]
Plants, 2023 After maturity, seed vigor irreversibly decreases. Understanding the underlying mechanism is important to germplasm preservation. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) play vital regulatory roles in plants.

Analysis of MsTERT Gene Expression Profile in Alfalfa (Medicago sativa) Indicates Their Response to Abiotic Stress and Seed Aging [PDF]
Plants, 2023 Seed aging is always taken as a crucial factor for vigor loss due to delayed seed germination and seedling growth, which limits hay production. Many studies have found that telomeres are closely related to abiotic stress and seed vigor.
