Seed dormancy of the first flowering plants
Seed dormancy of the first flowering plants
Dormancy mechanisms act to optimise the timing of seed germination for many seed plants. Fogliani et al. demonstrate that the New-Caledonian shrub Amborella trichopoda exhibits a type of morphophysiological dormancy in which the mechanical resistance of surrounding fruit tissues plays a key role in the initial physiological phase. Reconstructed chronological sequence of Amborella trichopoda seed…
