Proteomic reprogramming underlies climate-associated variation in seed dormancy and germination of European beech
The ability of seeds to survive until dormancy recedes and the germination requirements are met is an adaptive strategy. Proteomics improves our understanding of the mechanisms that control the adaptation to environmental heterogeneity. In this study, we investigated two European beech populations from different habitats that differed in dormancy and germination traits. We found that the…
