In memoriam: Michael Evenari (9 October 1904-15 April 1989)/ Germination Physiology: Ultrastructural changes in radicles of barnyard grass(Echinochloa crus-galli (L.) Beauv.) seeds during transition from dormancy to germination/ Sunflower (Helianthus annuus L.) seed dormancy and its regulation by ethylene/ The influence of redesiccation on dormancy and K+ leakage of primed lettuce seeds/ Energy metabolism of imbibing Kalanchoe seeds. Response to gibberellic acid and contribution of respiration and fermentation to ATP production/ Water relations and oxygen uptake by two lines of corn differing in storage performance/ Do germination mechanisms differ in plants originating in deserts receiving winter or summer rain?
