Seed life, including development, dormancy, and germination, is a complex process regulated by intricate networks of genetic and environmental factors. Among the numerous gene families involved in these processes, the NAC (NAM, ATAF, and CUC) transcription factor family stands out due to its critical role in regulating various aspects of plant development and stress responses. This mini review focuses on recent discoveries concerning the NAC family's function in seed life, highlighting their regulatory mechanisms and potential applications in agriculture.
