Seed ageing, survival, and the improved seed viability equation; forty years on [PDF]
, 2022 Seed Science and Technology published ‘The quantification of ageing and survival in orthodox seeds’ four decades ago. That paper explained the improved seed viability equation, which quantifies seed longevity in response to storage environment, and the ...

Investigation of viability rate and the effects of different breaking treatments of physical dormancy on seed germination of two tree species (Basswood and Black locust) [PDF]
علوم و فناوری بذر ایران, 2017 Basswood(Tilia begonifolia) and Blacklocust (Robinia pseudoacacia) are two forest trees with seed dormancy due to very hard seed coat. Seeds of two species were collected from Ghorogh nursery in Gorgan province to remove seed coat (breaking seed dormancy)

A Single-Nucleotide Polymorphism in an Endo-1,4-β-Glucanase Gene Controls Seed Coat Permeability in Soybean. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2015 Physical dormancy, a structural feature of the seed coat known as hard seededness, is an important characteristic for adaptation of plants against unstable and unpredictable environments. To dissect the molecular basis of qHS1, a quantitative trait locus

Hard Seeds in Leguminosæ [PDF]
Nature, 1927 IT may be of interest to Mr. Alexander Nelson and to other readers of NATURE (Dec. 4, 1926, p. 804) to know that sulphuric acid has been used industrially for the promotion of germination in hard leguminous seeds for some years. The substitution on an extensive scale of Indigofera arrecta for the previously cultivated Indigofera sumatrana by the indigo
