Seed Dormancy and Germination [PDF]

open access: yesThe Arabidopsis Book, 2008
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.

Insights into the Genomic Architecture of Seed and Pod Quality Traits in the U.S. Peanut Mini-Core Diversity Panel

open access: yesPlants, 2022
Traits such as seed weight, shelling percent, percent sound mature kernels, and seed dormancy determines the quality of peanut seed. Few QTL (quantitative trait loci) studies using biparental mapping populations have identified QTL for seed dormancy and ...

Release of Arabidopsis seed dormancy by cold atmospheric plasma relies on cytoplasmic glass transition [PDF]

open access: yesJ. Phys. D: Appl. Phys. (2023), 2023
When mature Arabidopsis thaliana seeds are dormant, their germination is prevented in apparently favourable conditions. This primary dormancy can be released during seed dry storage through a process called after-ripening whose duration can last several months.

Understanding Molecular Mechanisms of Seed Dormancy for Improved Germination in Traditional Leafy Vegetables: An Overview

open access: yesAgronomy, 2020
Loss of seed viability, poor and delayed germination, and inaccessibility to high-quality seeds are key bottlenecks limiting all-year-round production of African traditional leafy vegetables (TLVs).

Seed Dormancy Class and Ecophysiological Features of Veronicastrum sibiricum (L.) Pennell (Scrophulariaceae) Native to the Korea Peninsula

open access: yesPlants, 2022
Veronicastrum sibiricum is a perennial species distributed in Korea, Japan, Manchuria, China, and Siberia. This study aimed to determine the requirements for germination and dormancy break of V.

Seed dormancy release of Halenia elliptica in response to stratification temperature, duration and soil moisture content

open access: yesBMC Plant Biology, 2020
Background Although the effect of cold stratification on seed dormancy release has been extensively studied for many species, knowledge of the role of stratifying temperature, soil moisture content and duration of stratification on seed dormancy release ...

Advances in the Understanding of Reactive Oxygen Species-Dependent Regulation on Seed Dormancy, Germination, and Deterioration in Crops

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2022
Reactive oxygen species (ROS) play an essential role in the regulation of seed dormancy, germination, and deterioration in plants. The low level of ROS as signaling particles promotes dormancy release and triggers seed germination.

Principles of seed banks: complexity emerging from dormancy [PDF]

open access: yesNat Commun 12, 4807 (2021), 2020
Across the tree of life, populations have evolved the capacity to contend with suboptimal conditions by engaging in dormancy, whereby individuals enter a reversible state of reduced metabolic activity. The resulting seed banks are complex, storing information and imparting memory that gives rise to multi-scale structures and networks spanning ...

Seed dormancy in ornamental plants: A review

open access: yesThe Indian Journal of Agricultural Sciences, 2016
Seed is the first input used in transfer of genetic traits in ornamental plants production. Seed dormancy is a physiological phenomenon in plants, which is caused by external or internal factors, and prevents seed germination, even in optimal conditions.

REVIEW ON DORMANCY, CAUSES, USES, AND MEASURES OF OVERCOMING IT [PDF]

open access: yesScience Heritage Journal, 2023
The majority of both human and animal diets are made up mostly of seed, which is also the foundation and the first input used in the transmission of genetic features in crop development.
