Low seed moisture and polythene packaging improve storability of seed paddy

Journal of Stored Products Research, 2021
Abstract Rapid loss of seed germination and vigor during storage is a common problem faced by rice farmers and seed producers. Present study investigated the influence of packing material and seed moisture content (SMC) at packing on seed germination and vigor during storage in rice.

Evaluation of Horsegram Cultivars for Seed Storability

Madras Agricultural Journal, 2013
Twenty three cultivars of horsegram (straw testa (47.82 %), black testa (37.13 %) and light straw testa (13.04 %)) were screened during Rabi, 2008-09 and 2009-10 for yield and yield components and seed quality characters and stored in cloth bags for two years under ambient conditions.

Improving storability of Bambusa arundinacea (Retz.) Willd. seeds

Journal of Bamboo and Rattan, 2004
The viability of Bambusa arundinacea seeds in relation to collection, drying methods and storage temperatures was studied. Bamboo seeds need to be collected immediately before rains set in as seeds lose viability rapidly on exposure to excess moisture. Storage of wet seeds also poses problems.

Effect of Insecticide Seed Treatments on Sugarbeet Storability

Journal of Sugarbeet Research, 2010
Sucrose loss in sugarbeet storage is a concern for all roots, but particularly those stored under ambient conditions. In order to control or suppress insect pests in sugarbeet production and consequently improve root storability, two neonicotinoid seed treatments, Poncho Beta (60 g a.i. [active ingredient] clothianidin + 8 g a.i.

Low-energy N-ion beam biotechnology application in the induction of Thai jasmine rice mutant with improved seed storability

Nuclear Instruments and Methods in Physics Reseach B, 2018
Low-energy heavy-ion beam is a novel biotechnology used for mutation induction in plants. We used a low-energy N-ion beam to induce mutations in Thai jasmine rice (Oryza sativa L. cv. KDML 105) to improve the yield and seed quality.

Evaluating condition and storability of sunflower seeds

Journal of Stored Products Research, 1971
Abstract The average moisture content of samples of sunflower seeds (achenes) taken from bins at Crookston, Minnesota, was 11·8 per cent as determined by a meter at the bin site, but the moisture content of individual samples, as determined by oven drying, ranged from 9·0 to 15·7 per cent.
