I thought we could look at seed germination — how a seed begins to grow.

觉得们可以考虑下种子萌芽--种子是如何开始生长的。

It's also really great if you're mixing it into your seedlings, germination mixes, and production mixes, when we talk about potting soils, right?

说到盆栽土壤，如果你将其混合到幼苗、发芽混合物和生产混合物中，是不是也不错？

If you're a tree, seed dispersal and germination is a pretty risky business.

Did you read that book on seed germination on our reading list?

The socialistic idea, introduced into national politics in 1892, had been long in germination.

And so let's start with seed germination.

让们从种子发芽开始讲起。

The days when I learned to know him are days that I shall never forget. It was in 1886. After some years of silent germination the marvellous flowers of Russian art began to blossom on the soil of France.

认识他的日子是永远不会忘记的日子。那是在 1886 年。经过几年的默默发芽，俄罗斯艺术的奇妙花朵开始在法国的土地上绽放。

A number of experiments have confirmed this in recent years Plants bombarded with ultrasound in the lab have shown a range of adverse responses, including the expression of stress-related, genes, stunted, growth and reduced germination of seeds.

近年来， 系列实验已经证实这点。 实验室中受到超声波轰炸的植物表现出系列不利反应，包括与压力相关的基因表达、生长受阻和种子发芽率降低。

But we all have to use peat-free compost now and even with that, germination rates are different and you need to do a lot more feeding of young seedlings than you would with a peat-based compost.

但现在们都必须使用无泥炭的堆肥， 即便如此，发芽率也不同， 你需要比使用泥炭基堆肥时更多地给幼苗施肥。

Seed germination in sterile nutrients is now a common way to reproduce orchids. Mericloning also is a common modern method of reproducing orchids. The process calls for culturing from the merismatic tissue on a plant.

在无菌营养液中进行种子发芽现在是繁殖兰花的种常见方法。分株繁殖也是现代繁殖兰花的种常见方法。该过程需要从植物的分生组织进行培养。

They raised 80 bean plants, infested 40 of them with aphids two weeks after germination, and then, three days later, tested samples of the hydroponic solution of each using a process called bioassay-guided fractionation.

他们种植80株豆类植物， 在发芽两周后让其中40株受到蚜虫侵害，然后在三天后， 使用种称为生物测定指导分馏的过程检测每株植物水培溶液的样本。

Stifled as they were, they lay in him like seeds too deep for germination, which accident might some day bring near the surface and aerate into life.

尽管它们被窒息，但它们像种子样埋藏在他体内，太深而无法发芽，有天可能会因意外而浮出水面并发芽。

The pre-emergent weed killer granules, as a mouthful to say, but those products applied in the spring will prevent germination of the grass burrs.

这种预发芽杂草杀手颗粒，虽然名字有点拗口， 但春季使用的产品能有效阻止草刺的萌发。

As a result, groups of Welwitschia that sprouted from the same germination event over the millennia can be found clustered together.

因此，那些源自同发芽事件、历经千年的千岁兰幼苗群，往往能在同地点被发现，聚集生长。

Thus, farmers selected from among individual plants on the basis not only of perceptible qualities like size and taste, but also of invisible features like seed dispersal mechanisms, germination inhibition, and reproductive biology.

因此，农民不仅根据大小和味道等可感知的品质，而且根据种子播机制、发芽抑制和繁殖生物学等隐形特征来选择单个植物。

But many historians now consider the Middle Ages to have been a-thousand-year period of germination and growth.

但许多历史学家现在认为中世纪是千年的萌芽和成长时期。

This helped predict germination benefits and dispersal distance for any pair of animals and plants, based on their traits.

这有助于预测任何对动植物的发芽效益和播距离，根据它们的特征。

Despite the brutality and desolation, Etienne retains his belief in the potential germination of a better society.

尽管面对残酷与荒凉，艾蒂安依然坚信个更美好社会的种子有潜力萌芽。

Here is the seed, almost two decades in germination, for Doctor Manette and A Tale of Two Cities (and its preliminary title, Buried Alive).

这是《马内特医生》和《两座城市的故事》（以及它的初步标题《活埋》）的种子，已经萌芽近二十年。
