Seed storage: maintaining seed viability and vigor for restoration use [PDF]
Restoration Ecology, 2020 Effective seed storage after sourcing (harvesting or purchasing) is critical to restoration practitioners and native seed producers, as it is key to maintaining seed viability. Inadequate seed storage can lead to a waste of both natural and economic resources when seeds of poor quality are sown.

Quantitative Trait Locus Analysis of Seed Germination and Seedling Vigor in Brassica rapa Reveals QTL Hotspots and Epistatic Interactions [PDF]
, 2015 The genetic basis of seed germination and seedling vigor is largely unknown in Brassica species. We performed a study to evaluate the genetic basis of these important traits in a B. rapa doubled haploid population from a cross of a yellow-seeded oil-type

Proteome Analysis of Poplar Seed Vigor
PLOS ONE, 2015 Seed vigor is a complex property that determines the seed's potential for rapid uniform emergence and subsequent growth. However, the mechanism for change in seed vigor is poorly understood. The seeds of poplar (Populus × Canadensis Moench), which are short-lived, were stored at 30 °C and 75 ± 5% relative humidity for different periods of time (0-90 ...

Adenosine Triphosphate Content and Seed Vigor [PDF]
Plant Physiology, 1973 ATP content in imbibed seeds is significantly correlated with seedling size in fatty, starchy and proteinaceous seeds, and it indicates viability in seed lots. ATP content thus appears to be a useful biochemical index of seed vigor.

Vigor determination of okra seeds by respiratory activity
Bioscience Journal, 2018 Seed companies increasingly need to obtain reliable results on seed vigor. Therefore, the objective was to verify the efficiency of the respiratory activity measurement, by the CO2 released, to classify the vigor of okra seed lots.

Seed vigor, aging, and osmopriming affect anion and sugar leakage during imbition of maize (Zea mays L.) caryopses [PDF]
Conductivity was significantly increased by aging and decreased by osmopriming of maize (Zea mays L.) caryopses. Chloride, phosphate, and sulfate were the main anions that leaked out of maize seeds; their leakage was closely related to conductivity ...
