What Is Seed Vigour?

Journal of New Seeds, 2000
ABSTRACT Probably no other component of seed quality has been the subject of as much controversy and misunderstanding as seed vigour. Although the complex underlying mechanisms of seed vigour have not been fully described, much progress has been made in our understanding of the phenomenon and its practical consequences.

Effect of seeding date on canola seed quality and seed vigour

Canadian Journal of Plant Science, 2004
Seedling vigour is a key critical component to produce well-established canola (Brassica napus) seedlings under less than ideal conditions in western Canada. Our objective was to determine if seed lots from late October (fall) or early spring (April) seeding dates improve seed vigour relative to mid-May (May) seeding dates. We compared seed size, seed

​A Novel Seed Priming Technique for Enhancing Seed Vigour and Yield Potential in Marginal Vigour Seeds of Blackgram (Vigna mungo L.)

LEGUME RESEARCH - AN INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL, 2021
Background: Seed priming is controlled hydration and dehydration that results in improved seed quality and yield. However, hydration-dehydration of fresh seeds would result in soaking injury especially in legumes. The disadvantage reported in pulses can overcome through pre-conditioning of seeds which allows the seeds to slow hydration and prevent the ...

Seed Viability and Vigour

1988
A viable seed is one which is capable of germination under suitable conditions. The definition includes dormant but viable seeds, in which case the dormancy must be broken before viability can be measured by germination. A non-viable seed, therefore, is one which fails to germinate even under optimal conditions, including treatments for the removal of ...

Cellular substance exudation and seed vigour

Journal of Northeast Forestry University, 1992
In this paper, seeds ofpinus koraiensis which has a characteristic of deep dormancy were selected as an experiment material, and the relation of cellular substance exudation to seed vigour is discussed based on the dormant state, the different measuring parts and the imbibed state of seeds before testing, as well as on the respiration of embryo and ...

EVALUATION OF SEED VIGOUR TESTS IN BAJRA

Madras Agricultural Journal, 1987
Correlations were worked out to find out the inter-relationship among the vigour toats. The standard germination test was positively and significantly correlated with the vigour tests viz. field emergence, shoot-length, root-length, dry-matter production. vigour index germination energy, brick-grit test and ammonium chloride soak test.

Seed vigour in Iranian wheat seeds exposed to cold condition.

Mededelingen (Rijksuniversiteit te Gent. Fakulteit van de Landbouwkundige en Toegepaste Biologische Wetenschappen), 2005
Cold stress occurring in the seedbed of winter wheat at the end of autumn results in reduced emergence, even of undeteriorated seed lots (which have not been subjected to a long period of storage and have not been kept in bad storage conditions). The purpose of the present study was to determine the ability of different wheat cultivars at emerging at ...
