Seed Morphology and Classification of Impatiens (Balsaminaceae) [PDF]
Blumea - Biodiversity, Evolution and Biogeography of Plants, 2005 Seed coat morphology was observed through SEM for 65 species and 10 sections of Impatiens. Several types of seed coat are recognized in this study. On the basis of comparison with other characters such as chromosome numbers, floral characters and seedling morphology, systematic problems concerning Impatiens are briefly discussed.

The relationship between shape and size of diaspores depends on being seeds or fruits [PDF]
, 2019 The relationship between the size and shape of diaspores was investigated in angiosperms and gymnosperms including determining if being a seed or fruit was a factor. Size was expressed as volume and shape as the departure from a perfect idealized sphere.

Adaptive Morphological Reconstruction for Seeded Image Segmentation [PDF]
IEEE Transactions on Image Processing, 2019 Morphological reconstruction (MR) is often employed by seeded image segmentation algorithms such as watershed transform and power watershed as it is able to filter seeds (regional minima) to reduce over-segmentation. However, MR might mistakenly filter meaningful seeds that are required for generating accurate segmentation and it is also sensitive to ...
