Does Forced Plant Maturation by Applying Herbicide with Desiccant Action Influence Seed Longevity in Soybean? [PDF]
Plants, 2023 Herbicides with desiccant actions may be used to anticipate the harvesting of soybean seeds. This technique aims to minimize the negative influence of biotic and abiotic factors on seed physiological quality at the end of the plant cycle. However, forced

Seed longevity and genome damage. [PDF]
Biosci RepAbstract Seeds are the mode of propagation for most plant species and form the basis of both agriculture and ecosystems. Desiccation tolerant seeds, representative of most crop species, can survive maturation drying to become metabolically quiescent.

Limitations of p50 as a measure of seed longevity in comparative studies and the way forward [PDF]
Applications in Plant SciencesPremise Studies comparing seed longevity between species or genotypes commonly measure seed longevity as the time it takes for seed lot viability to drop to 50% (p50). However, p50 is influenced by the initial viability.

Transcriptome-Wide Characterization of Seed Aging in Rice: Identification of Specific Long-Lived mRNAs for Seed Longevity [PDF]
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2022 Various long-lived mRNAs are stored in seeds, some of which are required for the initial phase of germination and are critical to seed longevity. However, the seed-specific long-lived mRNAs involved in seed longevity remain poorly understood in rice.
