Abstract excerpt
Seed viability, dormancy and germination efficiency are very important aspects of the life cycle of plants and their potential to survive and spread in the environment. To characterize the genes controlling these processes, we have devised a technique for the selection of mutants impaired in seed germination. Selection for such a trait is complicated by physiological factors that interact with these processes and...
