This review provides a revised and expanded word-formula system of whole-seed primary
dormancy classification that integrates the scheme of Nikolaeva with that of Baskin and …

The proposal is made that seed scientists need an internationally acceptable hierarchical
system of classification for seed dormancy. Further, we suggest that a modified version of the …

We present a new seed dormancy classification scheme for the non‐deep level of the class
physiological dormancy (PD), which contains six types. Non‐deep PD is divided into two …

Seeds of the majority of plant taxa in all major biomes of the world except tropical rainforest
and tropical semi-evergreen forest are dormant at maturity. Dormant seeds can be classified …

Seed dormancy is an ecological adaptation that allows seasonal timing of germination for
seeds in a population. Several environmental stimuli can trigger dormancy release, the most …

Seed dormancy in small-seeded vegetable and flower crops impacts both seed production
and germination. Seed dormancy can also complicate assessment of seed quality by the …

The term dormancy refers to a state of a whole plant or plant organ that is generally
characterized by a temporary arrest in growth and development. Dormancy can be found …

Temperature is a key factor affecting both dormancy and germination. In non-dormant seeds,
when temperature is within the thermal range permissive for germination, it just regulates …

A small number of seeds greatly limits the number, kind, and size of experiments that can be
conducted to determine the dormancy-breaking and germination requirements of a species …
