If a plant breeder wants to overcome seed dormancy in Amaranthus seeds, which consequence follows?

💡 Explanation

Seed dormancy is often maintained by abscisic acid and can be broken by increased gibberellin. Increased gibberellin production overcomes the inhibitory effect of abscisic acid via hormonal signaling, therefore germination occurs, rather than the seed remaining dormant due to continued inhibition.
