The hypothesis on the connection between various germination rates of seeds that are not in dor mancy with their epigenetic polymorphism has been checked. It was shown that seedlings that were charac terized with different germination rates had different methylation patterns of transcribed and satellite DNA. Different cytogenetic characteristics and their changes were observed under UV C irradiation as well.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
