Proteomics of seed development, desiccation tolerance, germination and vigor
Plant Physiology and Biochemistry, 2015Proteomics, the large-scale study of the total complement of proteins in a given sample, has been applied to all aspects of seed biology mainly using model species such as Arabidopsis or important agricultural crops such as corn and rice. Proteins extracted from the sample have typically been separated and quantified by 2-dimensional polyacrylamide gel

Seedling vigor in beta vulgaris: The artistry of germination.
Proceedings of 35th Biennial Meeting, 2009Seedling vigor and stand establishment are two problems that growers have struggled with for decades. The initial conditions that a germinating seed encounters, and its ability to deal with them, affect the rate at which germination occurs, the rate of mobilization of stored energy reserves that the seedling uses to withstand adverse environments post ...

SEED SIZE, GERMINATION RESISTANCE AND SEEDLING VIGOR IN BARLEY
Canadian Journal of Plant Science, 1971Marked differences in seedling vigor, as measured by dry weight two weeks after germination, have been demonstrated in F3 lines of a barley (Hordeum vulgare L. emend Lam.) cross between CI 5791 and Ming (CI 4797). These differences can be largely accounted for by differences in seed size, which is itself related to segregation for head type, and by ...

ATP‐levels of germinating seeds in relation to vigor
Physiologia Plantarum, 1981Determination of seed vigor was attempted by comparing ATP‐levels of deteriorating seed to germination percentage and production of dry matter. Immediately after imbibition of any seed lot investigated, a production of ATP took place. This ATP‐accumulation invariably reached a plateau after 6 h of imbibition. Two well germinating seed lots of rape, one

Phosphine Fumigation Influence on Rice Seed Germination and Vigor
Crop Science, 1990Fumigation of seeds is one of the quarantine precautions directed against the international spread of pests. Seed treatment should ward off the pests without hampering seed germination and vigor. A study was conducted to evaluate the effect of fumigation with phosphine at different doses, exposure times, and seed moisture contents, and after the seed ...

Functional marker related to germination vigor of maize seed
Molecular Breeding, 2016Germination and synchronous seedling emergence are necessary for crop yield. One differentially expressed Cupin protein during maize seed germination had been identified in our previous study. To elucidate the functional sites in its coding gene, ZmGLP, a diverse maize association population was assayed.

Corn Seed Germination and Vigor Following Freezing during Seed Development
Crop Science, 2006The potential for an early autumn frost to reduce corn (Zea mays L.) seed quality is a concern for seed producers. This study evaluated the effect of freezing rate, freezing temperature (−6, −11°C) and duration (4, 6 h), ear attachment, and endosperm composition on seed germination and vigor (accelerated aging [AA] and cold test) during seed ...

Zinc priming promotes seed germination and seedling vigor of rice
Journal of Plant Nutrition and Soil Science, 2012AbstractThe present study evaluated effects of seed zinc (Zn) priming at concentrations from 0 to 25 mM ZnSO4 on seedling vigor and viability in rice (Oryza sativa L.). Zinc priming substantially increased Zn concentration in the husk, but not in brown rice.

Genetic and QTL Analysis for Low-Temperature Vigor of Germination in Rice
Acta Genetica Sinica, 2006The quantitative trait loci (QTLs) for low-temperature vigor of germination (LVG) with a germination period of 7 d, 11 d, 14 d, and 17 d at 14 degrees C was identified using F(2:3) population, which included 200 individuals and lines derived from a cross of indica and japonica "Milyang 23/Jileng 1" with microsatellite markers.
