Seedling vigor in beta vulgaris: The artistry of germination.
Proceedings of 35th Biennial Meeting, 2009Seedling vigor and stand establishment are two problems that growers have struggled with for decades. The initial conditions that a germinating seed encounters, and its ability to deal with them, affect the rate at which germination occurs, the rate of mobilization of stored energy reserves that the seedling uses to withstand adverse environments post ...

SEEDLING VIGOR STUDIES IN MORSHANSK BIRDSFOOT TREFOIL
Canadian Journal of Plant Science, 1969Progenies of 60 birdsfoot trefoil plants out of the Russian strain Morshansk which differed in maturity, seed load, and seed size were evaluated for speed of germination, seedling vigor, and rate of tillering.The results indicated that, first, seed load is unlikely to affect greatly the seed size and seedling vigor of the progeny; secondly, late ...

Seedling Vigor of three Lotus Species1
Crop Science, 1983Birdsfoot trefoil (Lotus corniculatus L.) is characterized as having low seedling vigor. Seedling vigor, estimated by seedling shoot, root, or total dry weight at 2, 4, and 6 weeks after seeding, was determined for 11 cultivars of birdsfoot trefoil, as well as 27 plant introductions of birdsfoot trefoil, 18 of L. tenuis L., and 17 of L. pedunculatus L.

Identification of QTLs for seedling vigor in winter wheat
Euphytica, 2014Seedling vigor is an important trait characterized by rapid development of vegetative cover above the soil surface, particularly in rainfed environments. To elucidate the genetic basis of seedling vigor, 207 F2:4 lines derived from Jingdong 8/Aikang 58 were investigated in the field at Beijing and Gaoyi, Hebei province, during the 2011–2012 and 2012 ...

Improving the seedling vigor and seedling performance of glutinous corn by hydropriming
Ecology, Environment and ConservationA study on hydropriming with different durations (4, 8, and 12 h) tested the seedling vigor of glutinous corn. Ambient conditions (temperature: 30 ± 2 ˆC; relative humidity - 65 ± 5%) were used as the growing conditions for the hydro primed and unprimed seeds (control).

SEED SIZE AND SEEDLING VIGOR IN BIRDSFOOT TREFOIL
Canadian Journal of Plant Science, 1967The relationship between seed size and seedling vigor in the field and greenhouse was determined for European-type birdsroot trefoil (Lotus corniculatus L).Sixty-four open-pollination progeny lines drawn from a nursery of 2,000 plants were grouped, on the basis of seed size, into eight classes each having eight lines.

Rice Seed Vigor and Seedling Establishment in Anaerobic Soil
Crop Science, 1996The rice (Oryza sativa L.) crop is established under hypoxia when sown into flooded or water‐saturated soft. This study was conducted to clarify the interrelationship between seed vigor and seedling growth in anaerobic soil and to identify seedling characteristics that predict establishment in the field.

SEED SIZE, GERMINATION RESISTANCE AND SEEDLING VIGOR IN BARLEY
Canadian Journal of Plant Science, 1971Marked differences in seedling vigor, as measured by dry weight two weeks after germination, have been demonstrated in F3 lines of a barley (Hordeum vulgare L. emend Lam.) cross between CI 5791 and Ming (CI 4797). These differences can be largely accounted for by differences in seed size, which is itself related to segregation for head type, and by ...

Rhizobial Inoculation Influences Seedling Vigor and Yield of Rice
Agronomy Journal, 2000Rice (Oryza sativa L.) is one of the world's most important crops. The present investigation was designed to assess the range of growth‐promoting activities of various diazotrophic bacteria on rice seedling vigor, its carryover effect on straw and grain yield, and the persistence of an inoculant strain on rice roots under greenhouse conditions.
