Journal ArticleDOI
Proteomic Analysis of Arabidopsis Seed Germination and Priming
Karine Gallardo,Claudette Job,Steven P.C. Groot,Magda Puype,Hans Demol,Joël Vandekerckhove,Dominique Job +6 more
TL;DR: A proteome analysis of the model plant Arabidopsis revealed new proteins associated with the different phases of seed germination and priming and highlighted the power of proteomics to unravel specific features of complex developmental processes such as germination.
Journal ArticleDOI
Proteome-Wide Characterization of Seed Aging in Arabidopsis: A Comparison between Artificial and Natural Aging Protocols
TL;DR: Differential proteomics analysis of Arabidopsis seeds revealed essential mechanisms for seed vigor, such as translational capacity, mobilization of seed storage reserves, and detoxification efficiency, and showed that similar molecular events accompany artificial and natural seed aging.
Journal ArticleDOI
Gibberellins regulate seed germination in tomato by endosperm weakening: a study with gibberellin-deficient mutants
Steven P.C. Groot,C. M. Karssen +1 more
TL;DR: Simultaneous incubation of de-embryonated endosperms and isolated axes showed that wild-type embryos contain and endosperm-weakening factor that is absent in ga-1 axes and is probably a GA, which facilitates germination in tomato seeds by weakening the mechanical restraint of the endOSperm cells to permit radicle protrusion.
Journal ArticleDOI
Proteomics of Arabidopsis seed germination. A comparative study of wild-type and gibberellin-deficient seeds
Karine Gallardo,Claudette Job,Steven P.C. Groot,Magda Puype,Hans Demol,Joël Vandekerckhove,Dominique Job +6 more
TL;DR: The proteomic analysis indicated that GAs do not participate in many processes involved in germination sensu stricto (prior to radicle protrusion), as well as the initial mobilization of seed protein and lipid reserves, while two isoforms of S-adenosyl-methionine synthetase, which catalyzes the formation of Ado-Met from Met and ATP, might represent a major metabolic control of seedling establishment.
