The relationship between seed mass and mean time to germination for 1037 tree species across five tropical forests [PDF]
Functional Ecology, 2009 Summary 1. Theoretical models predict that large-seeded species should germinate more rapidly than smallseeded species, since large seeds are more likely to have higher post-dispersal seed predation than small seeds. A prompt germination strategy would therefore enable large seeds to reduce risks of mortality. 2.

Seed Science and Technology, 2006 Previous work on maize and other crops has indicated that measurements of mean germination time (MGT), the reciprocal of which is the rate of germination, is a possible alternative assessment of vigour to the cold test. Emergence comparisons were made of 11 commercial seed lots from different hybrids from four different production years, over two ...

Can mean germination time predict seed vigor of canola (Brassica napus L.) seed lots?
Acta Agrobotanica, 2017 The aim of this research was to test if mean germination time (MGT) can predict seed vigor in 10 seed lots of canola. There was a significant difference between the final germination percentages of the 10 seed lots tested (‘Hyola 330’, ‘Hyola 401 ...
