The effect of cultural and environmental factors on potato seed tuber morphology and subsequent sprout and stem development [PDF]
, 2001 Seed crops of the variety Estima were grown in each of 2 years using two planting dates, two harvest dates, two plant densities and two irrigation regimes to produce seed tubers which had experienced different cultural and environmental conditions.

A framework for the interpretation of temperature effects on dormancy and germination in seed populations showing dormancy [PDF]
, 2015 Temperature is a key factor affecting both dormancy and germination. In non-dormant seeds, when temperature is within the thermal range permissive for germination, it just regulates germination velocity, while in seeds presenting dormancy it can also be ...

Multiomics strategies for decoding seed dormancy breakdown in Paris polyphylla
BMC Plant Biology, 2023 Background The disruption of seed dormancy is a complicated process and is controlled by various factors. Among these factors, membrane lipids and plant hormones are two of the most important ones.

Seed dormancy and the control of germination [PDF]
New Phytologist, 2006 SummarySeed dormancy is an innate seed property that defines the environmental conditions in which the seed is able to germinate. It is determined by genetics with a substantial environmental influence which is mediated, at least in part, by the plant hormones abscisic acid and gibberellins.

Environmental Regulation of Weed Seed Dormancy and Germination
Seeds, 2023 Many weeds produce dormant seeds that are unable to complete germination under favourable conditions. There are two types of seed dormancy: primary dormancy (innate dormancy), in which seeds are in a dormant state upon release from the parent plant, and ...

STUDIES IN SEED DORMANCY [PDF]
New Phytologist, 1967 SummaryThe dormancy of hazel seeds (Kent cob nuts) has been found to be broken by less than 30 days chilling at 5° C. During 50 days chilling there was no detectable growth of the embryonic axes although growth rapidly commenced when the temperature of 50‐day chilled seeds was raised to 20° C.Both cotyledon slices and embryonic axes from dormant seeds ...

Polymorphic homoeolog of key gene of RdDM pathway, ARGONAUTE4_9 class is associated with pre-harvest sprouting in wheat (Triticum aestivum L.). [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 Resistance to pre-harvest sprouting (PHS) is an important objective for the genetic improvement of many cereal crops, including wheat. Resistance, or susceptibility, to PHS is mainly influenced by seed dormancy, a complex trait.

Proteomic Analysis of Seed Dormancy in Arabidopsis [PDF]
Plant 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

Basic LEUCINE ZIPPER TRANSCRIPTION FACTOR 67 transactivates DELAY OF GERMINATION 1 to establish primary seed dormancy in Arabidopsis [PDF]
, 2019 Seed dormancy governs the timing of germination; one of the most important developmental transitions in a plant's life cycle. The DELAY OF GERMINATION 1 (DOG1) gene is a key regulator of seed dormancy and a major quantitative trait locus in Arabidopsis ...

Tanned or burned: the role of fire in shaping physical seed dormancy. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2012 Plant species with physical seed dormancy are common in mediterranean fire-prone ecosystems. Because fire breaks seed dormancy and enhances the recruitment of many species, this trait might be considered adaptive in fire-prone environments.
