Studies on Aged Seeds III: Sensitivity of Aged Wheat Seeds to X-Radiation
Caryologia, 1956 SUMMARYWheat (Triticum vulgare var. Baart, 2n = 42) seeds of different ages were X-rayed at different dosages and the frequency of chromosome aberrations and rate of germination were recorded. For the cytological study 1-, 3-, 13-, and 17-year-old seed were X-rayed at 1000r, 2000r, 3000r, and 4000r.

Effect of Nitrogen Reactive Compounds on Aging in Seed [PDF]
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2020 Reactive nitrogen species (RNS) are universal compounds that are constantly present in plant cells. RNS function depends on their actual level (the "nitrosative door" concept), duration of plant exposure to RNS and the context of the exposure. RNS are involved in the nitration of nucleic acids and fatty acids, posttranslational protein modifications ...

Influence of Stratification and Seed Age on Germination of Penstemon Seeds
HortScience, 1998 Seeds of eight Penstemon selections, stratified for 10, 8, 6, 4, 2, or 0 weeks in 1989 and 1990, displayed significant germination differences between species, between weeks of stratification, and between years. Germination varied from zero with P. digitalis in both 1989 and 1990 with no stratification, to 68.0% and 72.8% with P.
