Seed dormancy is an important trait in wheat (Trticum aestivum L.) and it can be released by germination-stimulating treatments such as after-ripening. Previously, we identified proteins specifically associated with after-ripening mediated developmental switches of wheat seeds from the state of dormancy to germination. Here, we report seed proteins that exhibited imbibition induced co-regulation in both dormant and after-ripened seeds of wheat, suggesting that the expression of these specific proteins/protein isoforms is not associated with the maintenance or release of seed dormancy in wheat.
种子休眠是小麦（Triticum aestivum L.）的一个重要特性，它可以通过诸如后熟等促进萌发的处理来打破。此前，我们鉴定了与后熟介导的小麦种子从休眠状态到萌发状态的发育转变特异性相关的蛋白质。在此，我们报道了在小麦休眠种子和后熟种子中均表现出吸胀诱导共调节的种子蛋白质，这表明这些特定蛋白质/蛋白质异构体的表达与小麦种子休眠的维持或打破无关。
