Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -The important germination inhibitors causing seed dormancy are abscisic acid, phenolic acid, ferulic acid, coumarin, short fatty acids and cyanogenic chemicals, e.g., Apple, Peach, Ash, Cucurbita, Iris, Xanthium.
Detailed explanation-2: -Seed dormancy is a state in which seeds do not germinate despite the presence of all of the necessary conditions (temperature, humidity, oxygen, and light).
