Description: Water imbibition (II), the uptake of water, results in rupture of seed coat (III) The imbibition of the seed coat results in emergence of the radicle (1) Step (IV) and the plumule (2) Step (V), the cotyledons (seed leaves) unfold (3) Step (VI). This marks the final step in the germination of the seed where the cotyledons are expanded and green (photosynthesis) and then the first true leaves develop. Note: Temperature must be kept at an optimum level.
