FACTORS AFFECTING SEED VIGOUR [PDF]

The Journal "Agriculture and Forestry"
The seed industry is essentially based on the production of quality seeds with high germination and vigour percentages and for that reason the aim of this study was to point out the most important factors that affect seed vigour. This study shows an overview of the development of seed vigour tests throughout history.

Counter Agronomic Systems and Maize Seed Vigour

Contemporary Agriculture, 2022
Summary The quality and provenance of seed are of exceptional importance for the production and yield of cultivated plants. There are numerous tests for determination of seed vigour. The seed accelerated ageing test is one of the most important tests that provide determination of the degree of germination preservation and the seed ...

Effects of production methods on seed vigour of soybean seeds

Zbornik Matice srpske za prirodne nauke, 2021
The seed accelerated ageing test is one of the most important tests for testing seed vigour, which provides the determination of the degree of preservation for germination and the determination of the duration of the seed storage. The aim of this study was to observe effects of two different production methods (organic and conventional) on ...

Early harvesting improves seed vigour of hybrid rice seeds [PDF]

Scientific Reports, 2018
AbstractMaturity stage in harvesting time greatly affects seed vigour. This work aimed to scientific harvesting time of hybrid rice for being high vigour with high & stable seed yield. Field experiments of different harvesting time were conducted in 2013–2014, and germination percentage (GP), vigour index (VI), seed moisture content and 1000-grain ...
