From dormancy to germination: Transcriptome analysis reveals the potential involvement of heat shock proteins in gibberellin-induced seed dormancy release in Solanum torvum.
Solanum torvum, a superior vegetable grafting rootstock and medicinal Solanaceae plant, exhibits strong seed dormancy, which limits its commercial cultivation. Among various strategies explored to improve the germination rate of S. torvum, exogenous application of gibberellin (GA) has been shown to be effective. In thi...
