Scientists have identified a key gene that helps seeds decide whether to germinate. The MFT gene stops seeds germinating in the dark or under shady conditions, where their chances of survival would be ...

When it comes to sowing seeds, there are a few tricks of the trade that can help increase overall germination. Step 1: Read the seed package and do some research before sowing. Different seeds require ...

In addition, gene expression was studied during early stages of seed germination, prior to radicle emergence, since very little detailed information of gene expression during this process is available ...

The journey of growing your own cannabis plants from tiny seeds is both exciting and rewarding. A highly important part of the process is germination, where a tiny seed transforms into a viable, ...

Researchers have determined a process that regulates activity of genes that control seed germination and seedling development. They discovered the step involved in keeping seeds from germinating in ...

Transcriptome and metabolite profiling of rice (Oryza sativa) embryo tissue during a detailed time course formed a foundation for examining transcriptional and posttranscriptional processes during ...
