Open AccessSuppression of GhGLU19 encoding β-1,3-glucanase promotes seed germination in cotton
In eudicots, germination begins with water uptake by the quiescent dry seed and is greatly related to the permeability of micropyle enriched callose layers. Once imbibition starts, seeds undergo a cascade of p...
