Seed Quality Analyzer and Segregator
TENCON 2019 - 2019 IEEE Region 10 Conference (TENCON), 2019The agrarian industry revolves around high crop yield. Superior quality seeds are the chief constituent for an excellent yield. An original idea to categorize seeds of soya with minimal human intervention and to draw conclusions based upon the electrical characteristics of the seeds has been presented in this paper.

ORGANIC LEEK SEED PRODUCTION - SECURING SEED QUALITY
Acta Horticulturae, 2011To maintain integrity in organic farming, availability of organically produced GM-free seed of varieties adapted to organic production systems is of vital impor-tance. Despite recent achievements, organic seed supply for a number of vegetable species is insufficient.

Seed storage is often accompanied by a progressive loss of germination vigour and viability. In the present study, we have used Arabidopsis thaliana (L.) Heynh. seeds as a model, and carried out differential proteomics to investigate seed vigour. In our system, based on a controlled deterioration treatment (CDT), we compared seed lots treated for ...

Journal of Forestry, 1933
Abstract From an extensive study of the influence of the source of seed of shortleaf pine, pitch pine, tulip poplar and white ash upon its quality, the author concludes that size of fruit is a poor index, but that weight is roughly proportional to germinative energy and seedling vigor; that the source as to location in the crown, has ...

Sowing the seeds of quality: Quality at the source
Total Quality Management, 2002Quality at the source is one of the key principles of today's quality philosophies. It promotes an approach of 'right from the start' rather than 'detect and correct', and it has served business and industry quite well. It can also serve higher education just as well.

NZGA: Research and Practice Series, 1985
Seed quality refers to a number of seed properties which may have varying degrees of practical importance for agriculture. As well as the traditional purity and germination capacity of seedlots, seed quality also includes species purity, cultivar purity, vigour, seed size, seedlot uniformity, seed health and seed moisture content.

The seed is one of the most important factors in the production of the sugar-beet root crop, particularly since the change from multigerm varieties sown at high seed rates to monogerm varieties which are usually planted to a stand without subsequent thinning. Sugar beet is a biennial plant, and although the root crop which provides the raw material for

Impact of seed mycoflora of soybean on seed quality
Journal of Oilseeds Research, 2020The seeds collected from major soybean growing areas of northern Karnataka were tested for the association ofmycoflora and seed quality parameters. The mycoflora associated with soybean were Colletotrichum truncatum,Cercospora kikuchii, Fusarium oxysporum, Rhizoctonia solani, Rhizopus stolonifer and saprophytic fungiareAspergillus flavus, Aspergillus ...

Modern varieties are backbone of formal seed industry. The availability, access, and use of quality seed of adaptable crop varieties, are critical in increasing agricultural productivity, ensuring food security, and improving farmers livelihoods. However, research in legumes particularly lentil is relatively new compared to cereals both at IARCs and ...

Effect of seeding date on canola seed quality and seed vigour
Canadian Journal of Plant Science, 2004Seedling vigour is a key critical component to produce well-established canola (Brassica napus) seedlings under less than ideal conditions in western Canada. Our objective was to determine if seed lots from late October (fall) or early spring (April) seeding dates improve seed vigour relative to mid-May (May) seeding dates. We compared seed size, seed
