Ectopic expression of specific genes in seeds could be a tool for molecular design of crops to alter seed dormancy and germination, thereby improving production. Here, a seed‐specific vector, 12S‐pLEELA, was applied to study the roles of genes in Arabidopsis seeds. Transgenic lines containing FLOWERINGLOCUST (FT) driven by the 12S promoter exhibited significantly increased seed dormancy and earlier...
Plant life is characterized by major phase changes. We studied the role of histone deacetylase (HDAC) activity in the transition from seed to seedling in Arabidopsis. Pharmacological inhibition of HDAC stimulated germination of freshly harvested seeds. Subsequent analysis revealed that histone deacetylase 9 (hda9) mutant alleles displayed reduced seed dormancy and faster germination than wild‐type...
