The functions of the endosperm during seed germination.
TL;DR: The role of the endosperm during seed germination has been investigated in this article. But, it is not known whether the embryo secretes signals to the endo-sperm to induce the degradation of the seed reserve and to promote endo weakening during germination.
Journal ArticleDOI
Tissue-Specific Transcriptome Analysis Reveals Cell Wall Metabolism, Flavonol Biosynthesis and Defense Responses are Activated in the Endosperm of Germinating Arabidopsis thaliana Seeds

TL;DR: Tiling array expression data suggests that vacuolation is a consequence, and not a trigger, of germination, and a gene for δVPE (vacuolar processing enzyme), a caspase-1-like cysteine proteinase involved in cell death, is expressed specifically in endosperms of 24 h-imbibed seeds.
Journal ArticleDOI
Regulation of seed dormancy and germination by nitrate
TL;DR: In this paper, an update of the current understanding of the regulation of seed dormancy and germination by nitrate is presented. But this work is limited to the Arabidopsis thaliana and hedge mustard Sisymbrium officinale.
