1 Physiology of germination and dormancy Alison A Powell University of Aberdeen UK
2 Dry seed Normal seedling (ISTA germination) Physiological germination (radicle protrusion)
3 Dry seeds Low moisture content High matric potential (-350 to -50MPa) Low water potential
4 Water uptake Mobilisation of food reserves, decreased water potential Imbibition Radicle protrusion Water potential gradient (seed vs environment) results in rapid water uptake (physical process) Water potential of seed Priming and environment at equilibrium
5 Membrane changes during imbibition? Phosphatidyl head group Dry seed Imbibed seed Fatty acid Hydrated, liquid crystalline Dry gel Hydrated, liquid crystalline Rapid water uptake Imbibition damage Reduced germination
6 Respiration during imbibition and germination Embryo Storage tissue I: Activation of enzymes Active mitochondria II: Synthesis of enzymes / mitochondria Temporary anaerobiosis (CO 2 / O 2 ) Ethanol / lactate produced Taken from Bewley and Black, 1994 Seeds: Physiology of development and germination
7 Protein and RNA synthesis Resume minutes after hydration rrna, trna, some mrnas: retained in dry seed Initial synthesis: Translation of mrnas (mrna turnover) Polysomes Proteins synthesised
8 DNA synthesis DNA repair DNA replication DNA repair DNA damage drying/ rehydration; storage Single and double strand breaks endonuclease activity, free radicals, base loss Repair by DNA polymerases and ligases
9 Germination (%) Time course of germination 100 A 80 Deterioration B Lag period Repair Longer lag period More repair needed F Germination H at 20 o C I Time from set to germinate (h) Repair also during priming
10 Normal germination (%) (20 C).. From Khajeh Hosseini, Nasehzadeh and Matthews,2010 Seed Science and Technology,38, Lag period, repair and normal vs abnormal seedlings (oil seed rape) A: less deteriorated Less repair needed Fewer abnormals, more normals B: deteriorated lot More repair needed Repair incomplete Few normals Germination (%) after 2 days at 20 C R 2 = 0.62 *** B Slow germination Low germination at 5d Long lag period A Faster germination High germination at 5d Short lag period
11 DNA synthesis Cell cycle G1 Normal cell growth 2C DNA S Phase 4C DNA Doubling of DNA Increased β tubulin Mitosis G2 growth phase
12 DNA synthesis 2C DNA Cell cycle G1 Normal cell growth Dry seed 2C DNA Imbibition S Phase Doubling of DNA Increased β tubulin 4C DNA G2 growth phase Mitosis After radicle protrusion Priming: 4C DNA produced when germination is advanced following repair Implications for seed storage( Powell et al, 2000 Journal of Experimental Botany, 51, ) High germination, high vigour (little deterioration). Advancement, 4C DNA synthesis, reduced longevity High germination, low vigour (deteriorated seed) Repair, little advancement, improved longevity
13 Final stages of germination Radicle extension and protrusion: cells expand increased turgor; cell walls yield causes unknown possible role for expansins proteins involved in cell wall relaxation in vegetative growth; loosen H bonds? Production of normal seedling Mobilisation of storage reserves Seedling growth
14 Dormancy Prevents germination even in conditions adequate for germination Evolutionary adaptation Bet-hedging Two types of dormancy Primary dormancy part of genetic programme of seed development and maturation Secondary dormancy Mature imbibed seed Induced by environment Occurs in non-dormant seeds + initially with primary dormancy
15 Dormancy : inability to germinate in apparently favorable conditions Primary dormant seeds Breaking of primary dormancy Induction of secondary dormancy Non germination Non-dormant seeds Secondary dormant seeds Germination Breaking of secondary dormancy Germination Courtesy of Françoise Corbineau
16 Factors that maintain dormancy Maternal Testa / pericarp/ endosperm/ megagametophyte (gymnosperms) Mechanical Natural chemical inhibitors Permeability (water, gases) Embryo Endosperm: Restraint of radicle growth Hormones: ABA/GA 3 antagonism; embryo sensitivity to ABA and GA 3 Genetics Interaction of dormancy promoting + germination repressing loci vs germination promoting loci Dormancy classification: Baskin and Baskin
17 Dormancy breaking 2 processes Dormancy breaking Dormancy breaking agent Threshold value; single event or incremental events >1 factor may be effective Increased range of conditions in which germination will occur Germination Requires right conditions even after dormancy broken e.g. Summer annuals: Dormancy broken by low temperature; Germination requires a higher temperature Dormancy cycling Primary dormancy decays Increased range of conditions in which germination will occur, until nondormant But if germination not triggered, dormancy re-established.
18 Environmental Temperature Factors breaking dormancy Dry after-ripening; alternating temperature; stratification Light Chemical Light / dark; single doses Inorganic CO 2, nitrate, nitrite Organic Varied; butenolides (KAR1) Hormonal ABA / GA balance
19 Role of hormones in breaking dormancy
