Effects of tallowtree seed coat on seed germination

Journal of Forestry Research, 2011
We measured physiological parameters including water uptake, in-vitro embryo germination ratio, and seed coat structure observed by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) to explore the influence of seed coat on the germination of seeds of tallow tree (Sapium sebiferum (Linn) Roxb.). Tallow tree seeds had good water permeability.

Seed Coat Regulation of Soybean Seed Imbibition

Crop Science, 1988
Soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merr.] seeds are prone to imbibitional injury, which may culminate in significant economic losses. This study was designed to investigate the regulation of soybean seed imbibition by the seed coat. The intact seed coat delayed water uptake in the embryonic axis, cotyledons, and whole seed during the first 8 h soaking. The seed

Mechanical Properties of Wheat Seed Coats

Cereal Chemistry, 2001
ABSTRACTThe crumbliness of starchy endosperm and the resistance of bran are key characteristics that enhance milling behavior of wheat and are dependent on the genetic origin and moisture content of the grain. A method was developed to measure the mechanical properties of bran samples based on the measurement of tensile stress and strain.
