This project focuses on improving seed quality by understanding the genetic regulation of seed coat permeability in plants. It aims to identify key genes and their roles in seed germination and stress tolerance using advanced genetic techniques.
The European seed market is in constant expansion and improving seed quality is a key factor towards meeting the increase in demand.
The seed coat is constituted from multi-cell layers that surround the embryo that will become the future plant.
Seed coat properties and composition have a significant impact on seed quality.
Notably, mutant seeds with permeable seed coats have defects in germination phenotypes such as lower dormancy, shorter longevity and reduced stress tolerance.
The regulatory m…
