Determining cardinal temperatures for eight cover crop species [PDF]
Growing degree days (GDD) is a tool to predict plant growth and can be adapted for use in any plant species, including cover crops. A limitation of the GDD calculation is accurate temperature parameters used to predict plant development.

Field pea cardinal temperatures, growth and vigor traits of winter- and spring-adapted germplasm at germination and seedling stages [PDF]
There are few estimates of cardinal temperatures [Tb (base), To (optimal), Tm (maximum)] for pea (Pisum sativum L.) seed germination and seedling growth traits, with variable results, and there is almost no understanding of how these traits vary among ...

Quantifying cardinal temperatures and thermal time required for germination of Silybum marianum seed
The response of seed germination to environmental factors can be estimated by nonlinear regression. The present study was performed to compare four nonlinear regression models (segmented, beta, beta modified, and dent-like) to describe the germination ...

Cardinal temperatures for seed germination of six ecotypes of Plantago major [PDF]
Harvesting of medicinal plants from their natural habitats, put them in danger, hence their domestication is needed. In this context, knowledge of the properties of these plants, including the cardinal germination temperatures are necessary.

Evaluation of germination characteristics and determination of cardinal temperatures of poppy (Papaver somniferum) seed [PDF]
The aim of this study was to quantify the response of germination rate to temperature and to find cardinal temperatures required for different germination percentiles in Papaver somniferum. Four models of non-linear regression [Quadratic, Segmented, Beta
