Dehiscence

Definition: dehiscence

dehiscence: The sudden bursting of a seed pod, fruit, or capsule when it is ripe, allowing the seeds or spores to scatter. Managing dehiscence involves understanding plant growth patterns and optimizing harvest timing. Farmers should monitor crops closely and use appropriate techniques to collect seeds and maximize yields. Knowledge of dehiscence can also aid in breeding programs and crop improvement efforts.
