Seed Dormancy and Germination [PDF]
Seed dormancy allows seeds to overcome periods that are unfavourable for seedling established and is therefore important for plant ecology and agriculture. Several processes are known to be involved in the induction of dormancy and in the switch from the dormant to the germinating state.

Gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) releases seed dormancy by orchestrating abscisic acid and gibberellin metabolism and signaling [PDF]
Background Seed dormancy release, regulated by abscisic acid (ABA) and gibberellin (GA), is essential for plant development and yield. Gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) is known to mediate plant stress responses; however, its role in seed dormancy release ...

Physical Seed Dormancy in Legumes: Molecular Advances and Perspectives [PDF]
Physical dormancy of seeds is a form of dormancy due to the presence of an impermeable seed coat layer, and it represents a feature for plants to adapt to environmental changes over an extended period of phylogenetic evolution.

A Modified Method to Assess Secondary Dormancy in the Seeds of Different Rapeseed Lines and Cultivars [PDF]
The exposure of seeds to undesirable soil conditions induces secondary dormancy and this causes many problems for seed producers. Assessing seed secondary dormancy potential is an important factor in developing rapeseed lines and cultivars.
