Dormancy of safflower seeds: effect of storage and cold stratification [PDF]
: Safflower seeds exhibit dormancy soon after dispersion from the mother plant, making it impossible to sow newly harvested seeds. Thus, the aim of the present study was to evaluate breaking the dormancy of safflower seeds during storage associated with ...

Germination of dimorphic seeds of Suaeda aralocaspica in response to light and salinity conditions during and after cold stratification [PDF]
Cold stratification is a requirement for seed dormancy breaking in many species, and thus it is one of the important factors for the regulation of timing of germination. However, few studies have examined the influence of various environmental conditions

Putative Spatiotemporal Changes in Inhibitor Activity during Cold Stratification of Sapium sebiferum Seeds [PDF]
Sapium sebiferum is a tree with socioeconomic, environmental, and medicinal value. S. sebiferum seeds possess physiological dormancy, which is induced by endogenous inhibitors and can be broken by cold stratification. However, the putative spatiotemporal

Microbial Inoculation Is Crucial for Endocarp Opening of Panax ginseng Seeds in Warm Indoor Stratification [PDF]
Panax ginseng Meyer is one of the most popular traditional medicinal plants in Korea. Since ginseng seeds are morpho-physiologically dormant and have a very short lifespan, the harvested seeds need outdoor warm and cold stratification for 100 days each ...
