 | | Fresh spores may germinate in half an hour; the time may extend to several hours; spores two or three years old may germinate in three or four days, or may not germinate at all. |  | | Spores of most myxomycetes will germinate as soon as they are thoroughly ripe, and, during the first year, germination is more prompt than in case of older spores. |  | | A careful examination of rotting logs in moist woods will usually reveal an abundance of these delicate and beautiful organisms. |

| | PlantFiles: Detailed information on Moonflower, Moon Vine (Ipomoea alba) |
 | | These seeds seem to have their own internal time clock that determines when they are ready to germinate and it seems to vary from seed to seed. |  | | Like many plants moonflowers germinate over a good long length of time, so as to ensure survival in case of a late frost. |  | | Some of my Moonflower vines reseed themselves, but seem to wait until the ambient temperatures are very warm, around June, to germinate in the ground (NE Fla, borderline Zone 8b/9a), then bloom around September to frost. |

 | | The germination of the seed is slow and uncertain; a large amount of moisture is needed to saturate the spongy covering; many seeds do not germinate until the second or third year, and many do not germinate at all. |  | | Where the teak tree is associated with dense clumps of bamboo, natural reproduction is almost absent, except when the bamboo flowers and dies, and even then, if the dry bamboos and the resultant bamboo seedlings are not burnt, such young teak as may germinate are likely to be smothered at once. |  | | Teak requires a dry tropical climate, and the most important forests are found in those districts of India where, during the summer months, heavy rains are brought by the south-west monsoon, the winter months being nearly rainless. |

 | | Cow cockle seeds germinate mainly in the spring from late April to late May. Infested stubble which is to be summerfallowed should be tilled before this time to place the cow cockle seeds in a position to germinate. |  | | Cow cockle seeds continue to germinate throughout the summer but in reduced numbers. |  | | Tillage should be shallow to allow maximum germination of the seeds. |

 | | Some seeds, in addition, have projects from the seed coat that serve to aid in the absorption of water when the seed is about to germinate or that merely form an additional protective coating about the seed. |  | | Many seeds require a so-called resting period after falling from the parent plant before they are able to germinate into new plants. |  | | Other seeds are viable for years—for example, seeds of the Oriental lotus have been known to germinate 3000 years after dispersal. |

| | Bacteriology 102 - Bacillus |
 | | An endospore is "activated" – i.e., ready to germinate – after an extended period of dormancy, such as those present in many of our soil samples that we keep around for months to decades. |  | | Like a reproductive spore, an endospore will germinate and form a vegetative cell when conditions return for the growth of these cells, and generations of vegetative cells will again thrive as long as the appropriate nutrients and environmental conditions are present. |  | | Endospores are metabolically inert and can withstand a wider variety of deleterious conditions than reproductive spores – such as radiation, abrasion, extremes of heat and cold, and lack of nutrients and water. |

 | | Repeat burn treatments are necessary since seeds in the soil may germinate later and plants may resprout. |  | | Burning initially reduces the litter layer, and also stimulates the seeds of leafy spurge to germinate, therefore reducing the seed bank. |  | | Many prescribed burn programs are, in fact, designed to reduce the abundance of certain native woody species that spread into unburned pinelands, savannas, bogs, prairies, and other grasslands. |

Other annual grasses germinate as soils get warmer than 60 degrees. |  | | Crabgrass often invades areas seeded in late spring because of bare soil, frequent watering, and onset of hot weather, ideal for its growth. |  | | Crabgrass and other annual grassy weeds are common problems in home lawns that can be treated through both chemical and nonchemical methods. |

| | Spore - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | A chief difference between spores and seeds as dispersal units is that spores have very little stored food resources compared with seeds, and thus require more favorable conditions in order to successfully germinate. |  | | In common parlance, the difference between "spore" and "gamete" (both together called gonites) is that a spore will germinate and develop into a Thallus (tissue) of some sort, whereas a gamete needs to combine with another gamete before developing further. |  | | However, seeds (of seed plants) are not the same as spores, but are the fusion of gametes. |

| | Calvatia sp. (Giant Puffballs) |
 | | If each spore were to land in a suitable place and germinate and produce mycelium which in turn produced one average giant puffball it is said the resulting mass of puffballs would weigh 800 times as much as the earth, Obviously they do not all germinate or grow to produce more puffballs. |  | | The exact identity of the giant puffball I have encountered in high mountian meadows of New Mexico is uncertain to me. It is in the area where Calbovista subsculpta is described as being found but does not particularly match the description for that species. |  | | During the annual foray of the Arizona Mushroom Club I tried this out along with Scott Bates, webmaster of their site, and we both agreed it was simple yet delicious. |
