GERMINATION AND VIGOR OF LETTUCE SEEDS UNDER DIFFERENT TEMPERATURES [PDF]
The objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of temperature on germination and vigor of the seeds of different lettuce cultivars. It was used a completely randomized design in a factorial arrangement 4x3, with four cultivars (American, Crespa para Verão, Mimosa Salad Bowl, and Crespa Repolhuda) and four temperatures (20, 25, 30 and 35°C ...

Seed germination and vigor: ensuring crop sustainability in a changing climate
In the coming decades, maintaining a steady food supply for the increasing world population will require high-yielding crop plants which can be productive under increasingly variable conditions. Maintaining high yields will require the successful and uniform establishment of plants in the field under altered environmental conditions.

Seed germination and vigor of passion fruit hybrids
Most commercial plantations of passion fruit is propagate plants by seed, but germination is irregular, which hinders the growth of seedlings and uniformity, and is connected with the plant genotype. The objective of this study was to evaluate the germination and early growth of passion fruit hybrid seedlings, obtained from different genetic ...

Germination and vigor of soybean genotypes seeds under saline stress
ABSTRACT Soybean stands out among the crops with the greatest application of transgenics, mainly for tolerance to herbicides, pests, and diseases; however, studies on salt stress in genetically modified plants are scarce. This study aimed to evaluate the tolerance of both traditional and genetically modified soybean genotypes to saline stress during ...

Desiccation effects on germination and vigor of King palm seeds [PDF]
The desiccation tolerance of Archontophoenix alexandrae (Wendl. & Drude) seeds was determined and the most sensitive vigor test for assessing seed deterioration of this species was identified. Mature fruits were harvested in the palm collection of the Instituto Agronomico in Campinas, Brazil. Depulped fruits were transported in impermeable packages
