that prolonged incubation of sugar beet fruits at low temperature can induce secondary nondeep physiological dormancy of apparently
nondormant crop species. The physiological and biophysical mechanisms
underpinning this cold-induced secondary dormancy include the chilling-induced accumulation
of abscisic acid in the seeds, a reduction in the embryo growth potential
and a block in weakening of the endosperm covering the embryonic root.
