Accelerated aging as vigor test for sunn hemp seeds [PDF]
Ciência Rural, 2017 ABSTRACT: This study aimed to determine the most appropriate method to assess the sunn hemp ( Crotalaria juncea L.) seed vigor in the accelerated aging test. Five seed lots from harvest 2007/2008 were evaluated for germination, vigor and seedling emergence in the field.

Accelerated aging test in the determination of safflower seeds vigor
Bioscience Journal, 2022 In assessing the quality of seed lots, the vigor tests are complementary to the germination test and they identify differences in the degree of deterioration of the lots. For safflower, there is little information regarding these tests. In this way, the intention of this study was to adapt the accelerated aging test methodology to assess the ...

Electrical Conductivity Test For Predict Sunflower Seeds Vigor
International Journal of Agriculture and Environmental Science, 2019 There is no standardised test for predicting sunflower seed vigor. The electrical conductivity test (EC) produces faster results. Before a test is standardised requires a validation process to ensure reliable and reproducible results. The aims were to analyse the repeatability and reproducibility of EC on sunflower seeds without pericarp and the ...

Genetic Modification of Low Phytic Acid 1-1 Maize to Enhance Iron Content and Bioavailability [PDF]
, 2011 High phytate content in staple food crops is a major barrier to successful iron biofortification. We have exploited the low phytic acid 1-1 (lpa1-1) mutant of maize to generate transgenic plants with up-to 70 μg/g seed iron through the endosperm-specific

Primary root emission as a vigor test in soybean seeds
REVISTA CIÊNCIA AGRONÔMICA, 2023 ABSTRACT The objective was to verify if the primary root emission can be recommended as a vigor test for soybean seeds. For this, five lots of varieties ANTA 82, NA7337 and BRS1074IPRO were evaluated by first count, germination, emergence, emergence speed index and tetrazolium tests.
