General Information
Term seed dormancy process ID (Ontology) GO:0010162 (Gene Ontology)
Definition A dormancy process in which dormancy (sometimes called a dormant state) is induced, maintained or broken in a seed. Seed dormancy is a suspension of most physiological activity and growth in a seed, including the embryo contained therein, that can be reactivated. It often requires special conditions for reactivation, such as specific temperature, scarification, or leaching of inhibitors.[ ISBN:9781405139830 ]
