Studies involving the effects of long‐term exposure of plants to cadmium (Cd) are not usual,
hence, data about Cd‐induced impacts on plant reproductive organs are scarce. The lack of …

Seed priming is widely used in commercial seeds and its main function is to accelerate and
synchronize seed germination. Undesirably, primed seeds show reduced longevity and …

We hypothesize that by simulating the natural priming in seeds of a species that forms
transient seed banks it is possible to clarify molecular aspects of germination that lead to the …

Sample size fluctuation and the restriction of measurements that demonstrate kinetics
(typical of physiological processes) are two of the largest inferential constraints in studies on …

O objetivo deste trabalho foi apresentar um levantamento de espécies nativas brasileiras
produtoras de sementes, cujos processos de germinação ou emergência foram avaliados …

Although germination sensu stricto and germination–dormancy balance are essential to
each other, few reports demonstrate the effects of their relationship on patterns of seed …

How much interactivity is in a seed‐seedling transition system? We hypothesize that seed‐
seed, seed‐seedling, and seedling‐seedling interactions can drive the early plant …

Abstract Solanum lycocarpum St. Hill (lobeira) is a typical plant from Brazilian Cerrado,
which present a great ecological importance as it is considered a nurse plant and is food …

How much interactivity is there in a seed-seedling transition system? The answer for this
question can reveal a key aspect for early plant establishment. Thus, we hypothesize that …
