A fast ethanol assay to detect seed deterioration [PDF]
The most common way to test seed quality is to use a simple and reliable but time- and space-consuming germination test. In this paper we present a fast and simple method to analyse cabbage seed deterioration by measuring ethanol production from ...

230 Seed Priming of Triploid Watermelon Seed [PDF]
Triploid watermelon seed does not germinate in cold, wet soils as well as diploids; germination is slower due to reduced embryo size and thicker seed coat; fissures on the seed coat provide safe harbour for fungal spores; and triploid fruit set is later than most diploid cultivars.

Quantification of safflower (Carthamus tinctorius) seed germination response to water potential and priming: hydro time models on the basis of normal, weibull and gumbel distributions [PDF]
Introduction Water potential osmotic is one primary environmental regulators of seed germination. Quantification of germination response to water potential is possible using hydro time model, also low seed germination and seedling emergence is one of the
