Leacthing the excised embryonic-axes from dormant groundunt (Arachis hypogaea) seeds resulted in their growth. However, their growth was stunted compared to that of after-ripened ones. It is attributed to (1) the lower amount of gibberellin-like substances in the dry, dormant embryonic-axes than in the after-ripened ones, and (2) the inability of the former to sythesise tbe tibberetllin as indicated by the lower content compared to the after-ripened ones kept in water. Exogenousty supplied GA(3) (0.1 mg/1) increased both the endogenous gibberellin and growth of the dormant, leached embryonic-axes to the level of after-ripened ones.

Emerging evidence indicates that long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) play a regulatory role in plant response to environmental stresses. Seed germination is a complex physiological process modulated by many environmental and phytohormonal cues. However, how lncRNAs and phytohormones interactively regulate the response of seed germination to salt stress remain largely unknown.

Unlabelled: Previous studies illustrated that two banana GA20 oxidase2 (MaGA20ox2) genes, and , are implicated in controlling banana growth and development; however, the biological function of each gene remains unknown. Ma04g15900 protein (termed MaGA20ox2f in this article) is the closest homolog to the Rice SD1 (encoded by 'green revolution gene', ) in the banana genome. The expression of is confined to leaves, peduncles, fruit peels, and pulp.

Ca and Mg are essential micronutrients for plant growth, and they play a crucial role in plant development and responses to adversity by influencing the activities of endogenous hormones and antioxidant enzymes. However, the specific mechanisms through which calcium (Ca) and magnesium (Mg) regulate the kernel sugar content through endogenous hormones and antioxidant enzymes remain unclear. In this study, we analyzed the impact of Ca and Mg on the physiology of maize leaves and kernel quality by determining the activities of antioxidant enzymes and endogenous hormones, and the kernel sugar content in maize leaves when supplemented with different levels of Ca and Mg.

The lily is a globally popular cut flower, and managing dormancy in lily bulblets is essential for continuous, year-round production. While nitric oxide (NO) has been shown to influence seed dormancy and germination, its role in dormancy release in lilies was previously unconfirmed. In this study, we investigated the effects of NO on dormancy release in lily bulblets using SNP and c-PTIO.

However, the effects underlying its allelopathy require further characterization at the physiological and molecular levels. In this study, the physiological, biochemical, and metabolic mechanisms underlying allelopathy were investigated using as a receptor plant.
