  2. Seed - Wikipedia

    The following types of seed dormancy do not involve seed dormancy, strictly speaking, as lack of germination is prevented by the environment, not by characteristics of the seed itself (see Germination): Photodormancy or light sensitivity affects germination of some seeds. These photoblastic seeds need a period of darkness or light to germinate.

    Runcaria has all of the qualities of seed plants except for a solid seed coat and a system to guide the pollen to the seed. [3] Runcaria was followed shortly after by plants with a more condensed cupule, such as Spermasporites and Moresnetia. Seed-bearing plants had diversified substantially by the Famennian, the last stage

    The seeds are usually about 1 to 2 millimetres (1 ⁄ 32 to 3 ⁄ 32 in) in diameter and may be colored from yellowish white to black. They are an important spice in many regional foods and may come from one of three different plants: black mustard ( Brassica nigra ), brown mustard ( B. juncea ), or white mustard ( Sinapis alba ).

  6. Germination - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Germination

    Some seeds germinate when the soil is cool 28–40 F (-2 - 4 C), and some when the soil is warm 76-90 F (24–32 C). Some seeds require exposure to cold temperatures (vernalization) to break dormancy. Some seeds in a dormant state will not germinate even if conditions are favorable.

  7. Seed dispersal - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seed_dispersal

    Epilobium hirsutum seed head dispersing seeds. In spermatophyte plants, seed dispersal is the movement, spread or transport of seeds away from the parent plant. [1] Plants have limited mobility and rely upon a variety of dispersal vectors to transport their seeds, including both abiotic vectors, such as the wind, and living vectors such as birds.
