Light-induced Dormancy Breaking

Light-Induced Dormancy Breaking is a physiological mechanism in seed biology whereby the termination of seed dormancy is specifically triggered by exposure to light, particularly red and far-red wavelengths, through the activation of photoreceptors such as phytochromes, thereby distinguishing it from dormancy-breaking processes mediated by temperature, chemical signals, or after-ripening.
