Optimizing black cumin (Bunium persicum) domestication: fast cycling through moist-chilling and juvenile growth phases produces flowering plants within 16 months
Bunium persicum (black cumin), a threatened medicinal Apiaceae from arid montane regions, faces cultivation challenges due to its prolonged juvenile phase (3–4 years) and obligate summer dormancy, driving unsustainable wild harvesting. We developed a protocol to overcome these constraints by…
