Seed germination variability and its association with functional traits in submontane tropical forest species of Indonesia: recommendations for direct seeding

Forest Science and Technology
Seed germination is a crucial component of the reproductive cycle of plants, and thus, knowledge of germination strategies plays a vital role in species selection for seed-based forest restoration.

Proanthocyanidins in seed coat tegmen and endospermic cap inhibit seed germination in Sapium sebiferum [PDF]

PeerJ, 2018
Sapium sebiferum, an ornamental and bio-energetic plant, is propagated by seed. Its seed coat contains germination inhibitors and takes a long time to stratify for germination. In this study, we discovered that the S.

Water content and GA(3)-induced embryonic cell expansion explain Euterpe edulis seed germination, rather than seed reserve mobilisation

, 2011
Euterpe Mulls is a key ecological species in the Atlantic forest. However, illegal plant extraction has lowered its natural occurrence in many areas. A previous study showed that gibherellic acid (GA(3)) applied 12 days after sowing (DAS) increases the ...

Defect‐Engineered Microwave‐Responsive Ni@C Composites From Waste PET for Catalytic Plastic Upcycling

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
A circular upcycling strategy transforms waste poly(ethylene terephthalate) bottles into microwave‐responsive Ni@C catalyst featuring lattice‐distorted nickel cores and defective carbon shells. These strain‐rich heterointerfaces enhance dielectric loss and promote localized microwave hotspots, accelerating peroxymonosulfate activation and polymer‐chain

Effect of storage time and type of packaging on seed quality of tall fescue [PDF]

Journal on Processing and Energy in Agriculture, 2012
After harvesting, the seed dormancy of grasses occurs. During the maturing period, seed dormancy is slowly reduced, and seed germination reaches the maximum values of use. Germination decreases during longer storage.

Bottom‐Up Engineering of a Human Neuromuscular System for Modeling Activity‐Induced Remodeling, Metabolic Stress, and Endothelial‐Modulated Excitability

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Using a bottom‐up approach, we engineered a human neuromuscular microchip to investigate distinct adaptive responses to neural stimulation and metabolic stress. Further integration of endothelial cells revealed their critical role in modulating neuromuscular excitability, establishing a comprehensive neurovascular‐muscular model.

Studies on the Germination and Emergence of Castor Seedlings

Seeds
Castor (Ricinus communis) is an oilseed usually cultivated in tropical and semi-arid conditions. The slow and uneven germination of castor seed is causing poor crop establishment and reduced seed yield. This series of studies investigated several factors
