I read an article about seed germination by Lee Hall.

一篇Lee Hall写的关于种子萌的文章。

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

觉得们可以考虑一下种子萌--种子是如何开始生长的。

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

如果你是一棵树，你会明白把种子散播出去并生根发是一件很具有风险的事情。

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

你过们书单里面的关于种子萌的那本书吗？

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

1892年引入国家政治的社会主义思想早已萌。

He'd take me to the rice fields, and we would experiment with seed germination.

会带去稻田，们会做种子发实验。

Occasional mutant individuals among wild plants lacked thick seed coats or other inhibitors of germination.

野生植物中偶尔出现的突变个体缺乏厚厚的种皮或其发抑制剂。

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一千年的萌和成长时期。

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

这有助于预测任何一对动植物的发效益和传播距离，根据它们的特征。

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，如果你将其到幼苗、发物和生产物中，是不是也不错？

For example, when I was younger, my father, who works in agriculture, taught me how to do seed germination experiments.

例如，在小时候，从事农业工作的父亲教如何做种子发实验。

But the germination, growth, and disease resistance of plants are adapted to precisely those features of climate.

但植物的发、生长和抗病能力恰恰适应气候的这些特征。

First, they had to create models that could predict two interactions between plants and fruit-eating animals: germination and how far seeds were dispersed.

首先，们必须创建模型来预测植物和食果动物之间的两种相互作用：发和种子散布的距离。

[Miriam] My name is Miriam. I am eight years old. I live in Montpelier, Vermont. My question is how does germination work?

的问题是发是如何进行的？

Like the changes in seed dispersal, these changes in germination inhibition characterize wheat, barley, peas, and many other crops compared with their wild ancestors.

与种子传播的变化一样，发抑制的这些变化是小麦、大麦、豌豆和许多其作物与其野生祖先相比的特征。

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，已经萌近二十年。

Of course, the evolutionary changes (following cultivation) in seed dispersal and germination inhibition would have been unforeseen consequences of what those first farmers were doing.

当然，种子传播和发抑制方面的进化变化（耕种后）是第一批农民所做的事情无法预见的后果。

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，但它们像种子一样埋藏在体内，太深而无法发，有一天可能会因意外而浮出水面并发。

Finally, their wild ancestors required very little genetic change to be converted into crops—for instance, in wheat, just the mutations for nonshattering stalks and uniform quick germination.

最后，它们的野生祖先只需要很少的基因改变就可以转化为农作物——例如，在小麦中，只需要不破碎的茎和均匀的快速发的突变。

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.

们培育 80 株豆类植物， 在发两周后用蚜虫感染其中的 40 株，然后在三天后， 使用称为生物测定引导分馏的过程测试每株植物的水培溶液样本。
