Epigenetic control of seed dormancy using Capsella bursa-pastoris as a model species
The function of seed dormancy is to spread germination across time in synchrony with seasonal cycles to avoid unfavourable environmental conditions. Phase transitions during seeds’ life require genome reprogramming at a large scale, which is often associated with major changes in chromatin …

Experimental and numerical analysis of behaviour of the myxospermous seeds of Capsella bursa-pastoris (L.) Medik. (shepherd’s purse) in soil
… soil have not been examined. In this thesis, the Capsella bursa (L.) Medik. (shepherd's purse) is chosen as a model plant species to be studied. The shepherd’s purse seed mucilage consists two distinct layers. The outer layer is composed of only pectin and is readily dispersed/extracted in water. …

Understanding seed-soil adhesion by myxospermous seeds and their biophysical function in agroecosystems
… species was characterised: Arabidopsis thaliana, Capsella bursa-pastoris, Plantago lanceolata, Senecio vulgaris, Urtica urens, Veronica arvensis and Viola arvensis. Soluble and insoluble mucilage layers were visually distinct between species, with structural diversity owing to the presence of …

Distribution and Characterization of the Soybean Cyst Nematode, Heterodera glycines (HG) Types in South Dakota
… cress (Cardamine hirsuta), shepherd’s-purse (Capsella bursa-pastoris), and field pennycress (Thlaspi arvense) are also hosts for SCN. The losses to soybean production caused by SCN vary mainly with the degree of infestation (population density), susceptibility of the cultivar grown, and other …
