Proteomic Analysis of Seed Dormancy in Arabidopsis [PDF]

open access: yesPlant Physiology, 2006
AbstractThe mechanisms controlling seed dormancy in Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana) have been characterized by proteomics using the dormant (D) accession Cvi originating from the Cape Verde Islands. Comparative studies carried out with freshly harvested dormant and after-ripened non-dormant (ND) seeds revealed a specific differential accumulation of
