Structural aspects of dormancy in quinoa (Chenopodium quinoa): Importance and possible action mechanisms of the seed coats
(Cambridge University Press, 2015-09)
Two possible sources of resistance to pre-harvest sprouting were evaluated in quinoa. They showed dormancy at harvest and significant variations in dormancy level in response to environmental conditions experienced during ...
Effect of water availability and seed source on physical dormancy break of Vicia villosa ssp. villosa
(2016-09)
Physical dormancy (PY) plays a crucial role in the control of the reseeding process of Vicia villosa Roth, a winter annual species cultivated for pasture and hay, naturalized in several semi-arid temperate agroecosystems. ...
Temperature-dependent regulation of induction into secondary dormancy of Polygonum aviculare L. seeds: A quantitative analysis
(Elsevier Science, 2017-05)
In seeds of many summer annuals low temperatures under moist conditions provoke dormancy release while high temperatures induce secondary dormancy. Seed dormancy level establishes the range of temperatures under which ...
Echinochloa crus-galli seed physiological dormancy and germination responses to hypoxic floodwaters
(Wiley Blackwell Publishing, Inc, 2019-07-06)
Hypoxic floodwaters can seriously damage seedlings. Seed dormancy could be an effective trait to avoid lethal underwater germination. This research aimed to discover novel adaptive dormancy responses to hypoxic floodwaters ...
Environmental control of dormancy in quinoa (Chenopodium quinoa) seeds: Two potential genetic resources for pre-harvest sprouting tolerance
(Cambridge University Press, 2011-06)
Pre-harvest sprouting (PHS) is a serious risk when adapting quinoa (Chenopodium quinoa) seed production to different temperate environments. Two quinoa accessions, 2-Want and Chadmo were evaluated under field conditions ...
Molecular mechanisms underlying the entrance in secondary dormancy of Arabidopsis seeds
(Wiley, 2016-01)
As seasons change, dormant seeds cycle through dormant states until the environmental conditions are favourable for seedling establishment. Dormancy cycle is widespread in the plant kingdom allowing the seeds to display ...
Pre-harvest sprouting and grain dormancy in sorghum bicolor: What have we learned?
(Frontiers Media S.A., 2018-06)
The possibility of obtaining sorghum grains with quality to match the standards for a diversity of end-uses is frequently hampered by the susceptibility to pre-harvest sprouting (PHS) displayed by many elite genotypes. For ...
Different strategies for breaking physical seed dormancy in field conditions in two fruit morphs of Vachellia caven (Fabaceae)
(Cambridge University Press, 2018-03)
Differences in fruit morphology among or within species might indicate differences in other regenerative traits, such as seed dormancy and germination. In species with physical dormancy (PY), environmental conditions are ...
Structural aspects of dormancy in quinoa (Chenopodium quinoa): Importance and possible action mechanisms of the seed coat
(2015-05)
Two possible sources of resistance to pre-harvest sprouting were evaluated in quinoa. They showed dormancy at harvest and significant variations in dormancy level in response to environmental conditions experienced during ...
Effect of FLOWERING LOCUS C on seed germination depends on dormancy
(Csiro Publishing, 2017-03)
FLOWERING LOCUS C (FLC) has a major regulatory role in the timing of flowering in Arabidopsis thaliana (L.) Heynh. and has more recently been shown to influence germination. Here, we investigated the conditions under which ...
