A VEL3 histone deacetylase complex establishes a maternal epigenetic state controlling progeny seed dormancy [PDF]
Nature Communications, 2023 Mother plants play an important role in the control of dormancy and dispersal characters of their progeny. In Arabidopsis seed dormancy is imposed by the embryo-surrounding tissues of the endosperm and seed coat.

Seed Coat Development and Dormancy [PDF]
, 2007 Two major types of dormancy mechanisms exist: embryo dormancy where the agents inhibiting germination are inherent to the embryo, and coat-imposed dormancy where inhibition is conferred by the seed envelopes (Bewley, 1997). Generally, complex interactions between the embryo and covering structures determine whether a seed will germinate.

Seed dormancy in alpine species [PDF]
Flora - Morphology, Distribution, Functional Ecology of Plants, 2011 In alpine species the classification of the various mechanisms underlying seed dormancy has been rather questionable and controversial. Thus, we investigated 28 alpine species to evaluate the prevailing types of dormancy. Embryo type and water impermeability of seed coats gave an indication of the potential seed dormancy class.

Evaluation of techniques to break seed dormancy in Redroot pigweed (Amaranthus retroflexus) [PDF]
, 2023 If we understand factors that trigger seed dormancy release, then we can accurately predict whether the seed will remain dormant or germinate out of the seed bank.

Seed Dormancy in Hairy Vetch (Vicia villosa Roth) Is Influenced by Genotype and Environment
Agronomy, 2020 Seed dormancy complicates the agricultural use of many legume species. Understanding the genetic and environmental drivers of seed dormancy is necessary for advancing crop improvement for legumes, such as Vicia villosa.

Seed dormancy in ornamental plants: A review
The 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.

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2015 Seed dormancy controls germination and plays a critical role in regulating the beginning of the life cycle of plants. Seed dormancy is established and maintained during seed maturation and is gradually broken during dry storage (after-ripening).
