Seed germination in a male-sterile 7B-1 mutant in tomato is reletively more resistant to the inhibitory effects of a high osmoticum induced by mannitol and polyethylene glycol, to various salts, including NaCl, Na2SO4, KCl and K2SO4, and to low-temperature stress, compared to the wild-type (WT) seeds. The inhibitory effects of various stresses could be partly or completely overcome by fluridone (FLU), an inhibitor of abscisic acid (ABA) biosynthesis.
