The broad objective of this research was to define the role of warm (≥ 15° C) stratification in
breaking dormancy in seeds with stony endocarps that require warm‐plus‐cold (∼ 0°–10° …

Intact seeds (seed+ endocarp) from freshly harvested fruits of Prunus campanulata were
dormant, and required 4–6 weeks of warm followed by 8 weeks of cold stratification for …

Plants are incredibly significant in the lives of people around the world. People rely on plants
to satisfy basic human needs like food, clothing, shelter, and health care. Because of a rising …

Dormancy-breaking requirements and types of dormancy were determined for seeds of

Paeonia is one of the most popular ornamental plants in temperate regions, and its seeds
have epicotyl dormancy. Our primary aim was to determine the sequence of temperatures …

Fruits (drupes) of Symphoricarpos orbiculatus ripen in autumn and are dispersed from
