Seed Shape Description and Quantification by Comparison with Geometric Models [PDF]

open access: yesHorticulturae, 2019
Modern methods of image analysis are based on the coordinates of the points making the silhouette of an image and allow the comparison between seed shape in different species and varieties.

Evaluation of the effect of osmo and hydro priming on germination traits of polymorph seeds of Marigold compact petal variety (Calendula officinalis L.) [PDF]

open access: yesعلوم و فناوری بذر ایران, 2022
Seed priming is one of the most effective methods for improving germination and seedling establishment. In order to study the effect of priming on germination of different shapes of Marigold compact petal variety (Calendula officinalis L.), a factorial ...

The shape of a seed bank tree

open access: yesJournal of Applied Probability, 2022
AbstractWe derive the asymptotic behavior of the total, active, and inactive branch lengths of the seed bank coalescent when the initial sample size grows to infinity. These random variables have important applications for populations evolving under some seed bank effects, such as plants and bacteria, and for some cases of structured populations like ...

Seed Geometry in the Vitaceae

open access: yesPlants, 2021
The Vitaceae Juss., in the basal lineages of Rosids, contains sixteen genera and 950 species, mainly of tropical lianas. The family has been divided in five tribes: Ampelopsideae, Cisseae, Cayratieae, Parthenocisseae and Viteae. Seed shape is variable in

Micronutrient Content and Geometrical Features of Grain Sorghum Subjected to Water Stress

open access: yesChemistry Proceedings, 2022
Sorghum bicolor L. Moench is a cereal producing reasonable yield in dry and semi-dry, hot and saline regions, where the production of other crops is limited.

Identification of Additive–Epistatic QTLs Conferring Seed Traits in Soybean Using Recombinant Inbred Lines

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2020
Seed weight and shape are important agronomic traits that affect soybean quality and yield. In the present study, we used image analysis software to evaluate 100-seed weight and seed shape traits (length, width, perimeter, projection area, length/width ...

Seed ageing, survival, and the improved seed viability equation; forty years on [PDF]

open access: yes, 2022
Seed Science and Technology published ‘The quantification of ageing and survival in orthodox seeds’ four decades ago. That paper explained the improved seed viability equation, which quantifies seed longevity in response to storage environment, and the ...

Factors that shape seed mass evolution [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2005
We used correlated divergence analysis to determine which factors have been most closely associated with changes in seed mass during seed plant evolution. We found that divergences in seed mass have been more consistently associated with divergences in growth form than with divergences in any other variable.

Emergence Shapes the Structure of the Seed Microbiota [PDF]

open access: yesApplied and Environmental Microbiology, 2015
ABSTRACTSeeds carry complex microbial communities, which may exert beneficial or deleterious effects on plant growth and plant health. To date, the composition of microbial communities associated with seeds has been explored mainly through culture-based diversity studies and therefore remains largely unknown. In this work, we analyzed the structures of
