Seed discontinuous hydration does not benefit germination, but improves drought tolerance of Triplaris gardneriana seedlings
The discontinuous seed hydration enables the acquisition of tolerance to environmental stresses, causing a stress imprint. It may modify metabolic patterns and lead to improved stress responses. This study aims to evaluate the effects of discontinuous hydration on germination and on seedling growth...
