Seed Germination and Physiology

This cluster of papers focuses on the regulation of seed dormancy and germination, covering topics such as the role of hormones like abscisic acid, genetic and environmental regulation, the impact of reactive oxygen species, and the physiological processes in model plant species like Arabidopsis. It also explores the molecular mechanisms, metabolic switches, and ecological aspects related to seed dormancy and germination.
