Electrical Conductivity Test For Predict Sunflower Seeds Vigor
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 ...

Controlled deterioration test for evaluation of sunn hemp seed vigor [PDF]
The controlled deterioration test is efficient for seed vigor evaluation of several species. However, the procedures conditions are incipient, especially in respect to tropical forages such as sunn hemp, which still does not have a standardized procedure. The objective of this research was to adjust the procedures for a controlled deterioration test in

Vigor tests on lettuce seeds and their correlation with emergence.
Themain objective of this study was to evaluate some of the available seed vigor tests to predict lettuce ( Lactuca sativa L.) seedling emergence. Eight lettuce seed lots were evaluated by the following laboratory vigor tests: germination (GT), accelerated ageing (AA), saturated salt accelerated aging (SSAA),conductivity (EC), and digital image ...
