Implications of seed coat cracking on soybean seed quality [PDF]

Journal of Seed Science
: Seed coat cracking is a “physiological defect” that occurs in soybean seeds, affecting their integrity. The objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of seed coat cracking on the physiological quality and storability of soybean seeds.

Effect of seed invigorations on seed quality and storability on sorghum (Sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench) seeds

Bhartiya Krishi Anusandhan Patrika, 2018
The study was conducted on sorghum variety HJ 513 to know the effect of seed invigoration on seed quality and storability of sorghum seeds in Department of Seed Science andTechnology, CCS HAU, Hisar during 2016-17. All the treatments studied enhanced the seed quality parameters except the seed treated with castor oil, neem oil and sesame oil.

Harnessing Fungal Biowelding for Constructing Mycelium‐Engineered Materials

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Mycelium‐bound composites (MBCs) offer low‐carbon alternatives for construction, yet interfacial bonding remains a critical challenge. This review examines fungal biowelding as a biocompatible adhesive, elucidating mycelium‐mediated interfacial mechanisms and their role in material assembly. Strategies to optimize biowelding are discussed, highlighting

Increasing storability of Ceratoides arborescens seeds in ultradry storage

African Journal of Biotechnology, 2012
This research was designed to determine whether ultradry storage improves the longevity of Ceratoides arborescens seeds. Ultradry C. arborescens seeds were obtained in a desiccating container with silicagel, of which seed moisture content was from 10.87 to 3.78%, and stored at 4°C and room temperature (15 - 20°C) for 12 months.

EFFECT OF CRYO-STORAGE ON STORABILITY OF PAPAYA SEEDS

The Journal of Animal and Plant Sciences
A fruit crop of significant economic importance, papayas are often propagated from seeds. Based on their freezing injury even at low moisture content, papaya seeds are classified as "intermediate seeds"; and rapid loss of viability in storage is assumed to be the primary cause of poor germination; thus, the development of appropriate technology is ...

Combined Process‐ and Phase‐Field‐Simulation to Predict the Microstructure of Single‐Crystal Ni‐Based Superalloys

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
A combined finite element and phase‐field approach predicts the evolution of microstructure during the directional solidification of Ni‐based superalloys. The model reveals how withdrawal rate, temperature gradient, and wall thickness control the dendrite spacing, highlighting the strong effect of surface regions in thin sections where dendrite growth ...

Low‐Angle Grain Boundaries and Re‐Segregation in Single‐Crystalline Ni‐Base Superalloys

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
This work demonstrates that Re‐segregation at low‐angle grain boundaries (LAGBs) in Ni‐base superalloys is influenced by misorientation angle. Advanced microscopy and atom probe tomography reveal that higher misorientation angles increases Re‐segregation.
