Dormancy cycling in Arabidopsis seeds is controlled by seasonally distinct hormone-signaling pathways

Seeds respond to environmental signals, tuning their dormancy cycles to the seasons and thereby determining the optimum time for plant establishment. The molecular regulation of dormancy cycling is unknown, but an extensive range of mechanisms have been identified in laboratory experiments. Using a...
