Sl-ERF2, a Tomato Ethylene Response Factor Involved in Ethylene Response and Seed Germination [PDF]
, 2006 Ethylene response factors (ERFs) are plant transcriptional regulators mediating ethylene-dependent gene expression via binding to the GCC motif found in the promoter region of ethylene-regulated genes.

ALLEVIATION OF SALINITY STRESS IN LETTUCE DURING GERMINATION BY SEED PRIMING [PDF]
Journal of Plant Production, 2011 Using seed priming as a tool to overcome salinity stress conditions on lettuce Lactuca sativa L. (White Paris cv.) was studied. Seeds were primed in 5 different priming agents (PEG, KNO3, NaCl, CaCl2, Mannitol) plus the control treatment (without ...

Regulation of seed germination in the close Arabidopsis relative Lepidium sativum : a global tissue-specific transcript analysis [PDF]
, 2011 The completion of germination in Lepidium sativum and other endospermic seeds (e.g. Arabidopsis [Arabidopsis thaliana]) is regulated by two opposing forces, the growth potential of the radicle (RAD) and the resistance to this growth from the micropylar ...

Mechanism of endocarp-imposed constraints of germination of Lannea microcarpa seeds [PDF]
, 2008 Lannea microcarpa, a multipurpose tree species from the dry African savanna, sheds seeds that often display inhibition of germination. The underlying mechanism was investigated using seeds processed from fully matured fruits collected from natural stands

Seed treatments for improved germination of caper (Capparis spinosa) [PDF]
, 2004 [EN] This study analyses the effects of seven treatments for removing hardseededness and four for breaking physiological dormancy in caper seeds. Seeds were germinated in a growth chamber and the maximum germination percentage, the time to reach 50% of ...

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.Melanin content directly controls fungal spore mechanical properties, with pigmented spores achieving rupture forces two orders of magnitude higher than hyaline spores. Environmental stress drives this quantity‐quality tradeoff; stressed species invest energy in melanin‐reinforced, mechanically superior thick‐walled, super‐hydrophobic spores, while ...
