Journal ArticleDOI
Actions of Gibberellic Acid and Phytochrome on the Germination of Grand Rapids Lettuce Seeds
TL;DR: Gibberellins and red light appear to act on germination by regulation of sequential sites of a branched-looped pathway, and phytochrome-dependent germination seems to require only low levels of endogenous gibbereLLin activity or the addition of gibBerellic acid.
Journal ArticleDOI
Seed water content in relation to phytochrome-mediated germination of lettuce seeds (Lactuca sativa L. var. grand Rapids)
TL;DR: It is possible to distinguish two stages in the influence of light on the germination of Lactuca sativa var.
Journal ArticleDOI
Dark Reversion of Phytochrome in Lettuce Seeds Stored in a Water-saturated Atmosphere.
TL;DR: The half-time for dark far red-absorbing phytochrome reversion is 7 to 8 days, and at this time it can be completely reversed by exposing the seeds to a flash of red light as discussed by the authors.
Journal ArticleDOI
Water Content and Phytochrome-induced Potential Germination Responses in Lettuce Seeds'
TL;DR: Alternate moistening and drying of seeds in conjunction with red and far red irradiations show that potentiated responses may be phototransformed only with sufficient seed water, however, the process of drying and remoistening has no effect on potentiate responses.
Journal ArticleDOI
Persistence of phytochrome-mediated germination control in lettuce seeds for 1 year following a single monochromatic light flash
TL;DR: The effects of red or far-red light flashes on partially hydrated lettuce seeds were found to be undiminished by subsequent dry, dark storage for more than 1 year before germination.
