Temperature and Scarification Effects on Germination of Prostrate Bundleflower Seeds [PDF]

Journal of Range Management, 1987
A hard seed coat restricts germination of prostrate bundleflower [Desmanthus virgatus var. depressus (Humbolt and Bonpland ex Willd.) Turner] seeds. Our objectives were to determine: (1) the effects of temperature on germination of scarified and untreated seeds in the light and dark and (2) the efficacy of various presowing treatments in increasing ...

SOME RESULTS OF THE EXPERIMENT ON SCARIFICATION OF SEEDS OF FORAGE LEGUME (THE SAMPLE OF ALFALFA SEEDS)

World Science, 2023
If the hard seed (seed that is viable but has an impervious seed coat) content of legumes is greater than 20%, scarification should be considered. Scarification is the nicking of the seed coat to allow moisture to penetrate [1]. This type of seed treatment before sowing is of great importance, as it increases the yield of fodder plants by reducing the ...

Morpho‐functional analyses of the jaw apparatus in the Blue‐and‐yellow Macaw (Ara ararauna, Psittaciformes, Aves): Adaptations to feeding behavior

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Macaws are renowned for processing dry, mechanically resistant fruits, yet the species‐level anatomical and functional correlates of this performance remain incompletely resolved. We examined the feeding apparatus of the Blue‐and‐yellow Macaw (Ara ararauna) using an integrated approach that combines osteology, myology, and bite‐force estimates

Beyond wound sealing: A dual‐functional adhesive nanofiber membrane promoting coagulation and osteogenesis in extraction sites

BMEMat, EarlyView.
Inspired by the suction mechanics of octopus suckers, a dual‐layer nanofiber membrane integrates antibacterial protection, strong wet adhesion, and osteogenic support, offering a bioinspired strategy for effective hemostasis and alveolar bone preservation.
