Abstract

QuerySeed germination is a vital step in the life cycle of a plant, playing a significant role in seedling establishment and crop yield potential. It is also an important factor in the conservation of plant germplasm resources. This complex process is influenced by a myriad of factors, including environmental conditions, the genetic makeup of the seed, and endogenous hormones. The perception of these environmental signals triggers a cascade of intricate signal transduction events that determine whether a seed germinates or remains dormant. Despite considerable progress in uncovering the molecular mechanisms governing these processes, many questions remain unanswered. In this review, we summarize the current progress in the molecular mechanisms underlying the perception of environmental signals and consequent signal transduction during seed germination, and discuss questions that need to be addressed to better understand the process of seed germination and develop novel strategies for germplasm improvement.

种子萌发过程中信号感知和转导的分子机制

Query种子萌发是植物生命周期中至关重要的一步，对幼苗的建立和作物产量潜力起着重要作用。它也是保护植物种质资源的一个重要因素。这一复杂的过程受到环境条件、种子基因构成和内源激素等多种因素的影响。对这些环境信号的感知会触发一连串错综复杂的信号转导事件，从而决定种子是萌发还是保持休眠。尽管在揭示这些过程的分子机制方面取得了很大进展，但仍有许多问题没有答案。在这篇综述中，我们总结了目前在种子萌发过程中感知环境信号及随后信号转导的分子机制方面取得的进展，并讨论了为更好地理解种子萌发过程和开发新的种质改良策略而需要解决的问题。

期刊介绍： Molecular Breeding is an international journal publishing papers on applications of plant molecular biology, i.e., research most likely leading to practical applications. The practical applications might relate to the Developing as well as the industrialised World and have demonstrable benefits for the seed industry, farmers, processing industry, the environment and the consumer. All papers published should contribute to the understanding and progress of modern plant breeding, encompassing the scientific disciplines of molecular biology, biochemistry, genetics, physiology, pathology, plant breeding, and ecology among others. Molecular Breeding welcomes the following categories of papers: full papers, short communications, papers describing novel methods and review papers. All submission will be subject to peer review ensuring the highest possible scientific quality standards. Molecular Breeding core areas: Molecular Breeding will consider manuscripts describing contemporary methods of molecular genetics and genomic analysis, structural and functional genomics in crops, proteomics and metabolic profiling, abiotic stress and field evaluation of transgenic crops containing particular traits. Manuscripts on marker assisted breeding are also of major interest, in particular novel approaches and new results of marker assisted breeding, QTL cloning, integration of conventional and marker assisted breeding, and QTL studies in crop plants.
