Ranjith Pathirana

It is mostly the endogenous hormones that impart dormancy in rice. Glutinous rices are more cold adapted and they have higher dormancy levels but it is not imparted by the type of carbohydrate.

Khandaker Kabir

I agree with Ranjith Pathirana. Dormancy of rice seed is a varietal characteristics nothing to do with Amylose or Amylopectine.

Jennifer M Washington

I have a hunch that starch content/type might affect germination rate (in barley). But, not sure if this has been shown.
