Electrical conductivity of soybean seed and correlation with seed coat lignin content

open access: yes, 1999
The effects of soybean genotype and seed coat lignin content on bulk electrical conductivity were investigated. Seeds of nine soybean cultivars were hand harvested at R8 maturation stage in Londrina, PR., Brazil in 1995/96.

Seed Nutrition and Quality, Seed Coat Boron and Lignin Are Influenced by Delayed Harvest in Exotically-Derived Soybean Breeding Lines under High Heat

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2017
The timing of harvest is a major factor affecting seed quality in soybean, particularly in Midsouthern USA, when rain during harvest period is not uncommon.

MC03g0810, an Important Candidate Gene Controlling Black Seed Coat Color in Bitter Gourd (Momordica spp.)

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2022
Seed coat color is one of the most intuitive phenotypes in bitter gourd (Momordica spp.). Although the inheritance of the seed coat color has been reported, the gene responsible for it is still unknown.

Transcriptional Profile of Soybean Seeds with Contrasting Seed Coat Color

open access: yesPlants, 2023
Soybean is the primary source of vegetable protein and is used for various purposes, mainly to feed animals. This crop can have diverse seed coat colors, varying from yellow, black, brown, and green to bicolor. Black seed coat cultivars have already been

Identification of the egusi seed trait locus (eg) and its suppressor gene associated with the thin seed coat trait in watermelon

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2023
Egusi watermelon has a unique egusi seed type, which could be useful for breeding both edible seeds and edible flesh in watermelon. However, the genetic basis of the unique egusi seed type is not clear.

Kinetics and mechanisms of congo-red dye removal from aqueous solution using activated Moringa oleifera seed coat as adsorbent

open access: yesApplied Water Science, 2020
Moringa oleifera (MO) seed coat, a postharvest waste of MO seed, was mercerized and used as eco-friendly adsorbent for removal of Congo red (CR) dye from aqueous solution at different time and temperature. Mercerized M.

Substrate Specificity of LACCASE8 Facilitates Polymerization of Caffeyl Alcohol for C-Lignin Biosynthesis in the Seed Coat of Cleome hassleriana[OPEN]

open access: yesThe Plant Cell, 2020
LACCASE8 from the model system Cleome hassleriana possesses the unusual property of oxidizing caffeyl alcohol but not coniferyl alcohol and plays a critical role in initiating C-lignin polymerization. Catechyl lignin (C-lignin) is a linear homopolymer of

Seed coat colour of Indian mustard [Brassica juncea (L.) Czern. and Coss.] is associated with Bju.TT8 homologs identifiable by targeted functional markers

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2022
Seed coat colour is an important trait in Indian mustard. Breeding for seed coat colour needs precise knowledge of mode of inheritance and markers linked to it.

Seed dormancy and germination [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
Seed dormancy allows seeds to overcome periods that are unfavourable for seedling established and is therefore important for plant ecology and agriculture. Several processes are known to be involved in the induction of dormancy and in the switch from the
