A study of seed vigour and seedling emergence of maize under field and laboratory conditions : a thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Agricultural Science at Massey University [PDF]
Maximum yield is obtained from an optimum stand of any crop species. However there are many factors influencing the stand which can broadly be grouped as soil and plant factors. Soil moisture, temperature and aeration influence germination. These factors

Influence of diesel fuel on seed germination [PDF]
The use of plant-based systems to remediate contaminated soils has become an area of intense scientific study in recent years and it is apparent that plants which grow well in contaminated soils need to be identified and screened for use in ...

Germination: a means to improve the functionality of oat [PDF]
The biochemical and physiological reactions of germination have long been utilised to produce barley malt for brewing and other purposes. Also some oat malt has been produced as raw-material of ale and stout production.

Germination rate of spores of Bacillus megaterium
Abstract THE most commonly accepted criteria of bacterial spore germination are loss of heat resistance, acquisition of stainability by simple stains and a change in absorbance (Wynne & Foster, 1948; Powell, 1951; Pulvertaft & Haynes, 1951; Levinson & Sevag, 1953).

ABSTRACT This study was conducted to evaluate germination rate of Vicia tetrasperma and V. hirsuta as affected by storage duration, temperature, and light. All seeds of both species were gathered from Dangjin, Chungnam in the late June of 2004 and 2005, stored for a certain period of time, and then exposed for 20 days to the alternating temperatures ...

Network properties underlying seed germination control [PDF]
We sought to gain a mechanistic understanding of the control of seed dormancy and germination by hormone balance. The field has matured to a stage where most of the key genes are known, and competing hypotheses have been proposed to explain how hormone ...
