Abstract
The effects of red or far-red light flashes on partially hydrated lettuce seeds were found to be undiminished by subsequent dry, dark storage for more than 1 year before germination. Upon rehydration of the seeds photoreversal of the latent response could be induced by a red or far-red light flash at any time during the entire period.Keywords
