The MKK3 MAPK cascade integrates temperature and after-ripening signals to modulate seed germination

Masahiko Otani, Ryo Tojo, Sarah Regnard…·Naoto Kawakami

This study identifies the MKK3 MAPK cascade as a regulator of seed germination temperature range by integrating temperature and after-ripening signals through phytohormone metabolism.
