Soybean seed vigor discrimination by using infrared spectroscopy and machine learning algorithms.

Analytical Methods, 2020
A novel approach to distinguish soybean seed vigor based on Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) associated with chemometric methods is presented. Batches with high and low vigor soybean seeds were analyzed.

Seed Vigor and Vigor Testing

2001
Seeds, as reproductive units, are expected to produce plants in the field. However, farmers and seed producers have long recognized that the labeled germination often overestimates the actual field emergence of seed lots. This occurs because by definition, germination is the “emergence and development from the seed embryo of those essential structures ...

Seed Vigor Test for the Establishment of Switchgrass

2009
Switchgrass (Panicum virgatum), a high-yielding perennial C4 prairie grass species, is a top candidate as a bioenergy feedstock for cellulosic ethanol production. Seedling establishment is a primary concern given the inherent variability in switchgrass seed dormancy. Determining current states of seed quality in terms of emergence percentage is crucial

Evaluation of Vigor Tests for Sorghum Seed1

Agronomy Journal, 1973
AbstractStandard germination tests often overestimate field performance of sorghum [Sorghum bicolor, (L.) Moench] seed. Seed from 60 seed lots were germinated following NH4CI treatment, NaOH treatment, and no treatment. Results from these tests, seed size, and tetrazolium staining were correlated with field stand establishment under four sets of ...

An On-Farm Ethanol-Based Color Test for Canola Seed Vigor

Journal of Crop Improvement, 2013
An on-farm test for canola (Brassica napus L. and B rapa L.) seed vigor would help ensure that canola growers plant only high-quality seed. A rapid, 24-h color test based on ethanol emission by partially imbibed canola seed is described. Test results were compared to seed vigor measured as 2-d radicle protrusion (R2) and to standard germination (SG ...
