Biology Germination. In some plants, the seeds are able to germinate as soon as they have matured on the plant, as demonstrated by papaya and by wheat, peas, and beans in a very rainy season. Seed germination is a complex process involving a series of physiological changes mediated by environmental cues. Stratification is the requirement for chilling (5°c) to break dormancy in some seeds. At germination, the seed’s metabolic pathways are activated, leading to embryo growth and emergence of a new seedling. When grass seeds like corn (maize) or oats (shown here) germinate, the primary root pierces the seed (and fruit) coverings and grows down. The primary leaf of the plant grows up. Temperature, water, light, and oxygen are all key in determining the success of germination. Germination occurs when the embryo, which is dormant within a mature seed, resumes growth upon a return to favorable conditions. Germination, the sprouting of a seed, spore, or other reproductive body, usually after a period of dormancy. The embryo becomes a young seedling that is no.
