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.
