高等植物种子活力的生物学研究进展

Research Progress on Seed Vigor Biology of Higher Plant

种子活力是种子质量的重要指标和种用价值的重要组成部分。该文从种子活力概念的演变与延伸、种子活力的遗传分析、种子活力测定方法、与种子活力相关的miRNA和蛋白质组学以及引发提高种子活力的机理等方面对高等植物种子活力的最新研究进展进行了综述,并提出了种子活力未来的研究方向。

Seed vigor is an important index of seed quality and a main part of seed value.Seed vigor is one of the research focus in seed science.In this article,the recent advances on seed vigor were reviewed,including the evolution and extension of seed vigor concept,genetic analyses,new determination methods,miRNA and proteomics analyses related seed vigor,and the mechanism of enhancing seed vigor by priming.Moreover,the research directions in future of seed vigor were also proposed in this article.
