Seed dormancy and germination are crucial processes affecting the propagation and survival of plant populations. These phenomena are precisely regulated through a complex interplay between internal signals, such as plant hormones and environmental cues including light, temperature, moisture, and nutrient availability. Dormancy release and germination initiation are distinct, yet closely associated, processes involving complex...

Seagrasses are marine angiosperms, and seagrass beds maintain the species diversity of tropical and subtropical coastal ecosystems. For proper understanding, management and conservation of coastal ecosystems, it is essential to understand seagrass population dynamics. Population genetic studies can cover large geographic scales and contribute to a comprehensive understanding of reproductive dynamics and potential dispersal amo...
