Seed dormancy loss from dry after-ripening is associated with increasing gibberellin hormone levels in Arabidopsis thaliana

IntroductionThe seeds of many plants are dormant and unable to germinate at maturity, but gain the ability to germinate through after-ripening during dry storage.The hormone abscisic acid (ABA) stimulates seed dormancy, whereas gibberellin A (GA) stimulates dormancy loss and germination.MethodsTo determine whether dry after-ripening alters the pote

Housing-based syringe services programs to improve access to safer injecting equipment for people who inject drugs in Vancouver, Canada: a spatially oriented qualitative study

Abstract Background Housing environments shape injection drug-related risks and harms and thus represent a critical implementation setting for syringe services programs (SSPs).As critical harm reduction measures, SSPs provide safe injecting equipment to people who inject drugs (PWID).Vancouver, Canada, has well-established syringe distribution prog
