Seed-to-Seed-to-Seed Growth and Development of Arabidopsis in Microgravity [PDF]
Arabidopsis thaliana was grown from seed to seed wholly in microgravity on the International Space Station. Arabidopsis plants were germinated, grown, and maintained inside a growth chamber prior to returning to Earth. Some of these seeds were used in a subsequent experiment to successfully produce a second (back-to-back) generation of microgravity ...

SummaryThe involvement of four factors (life history, predation, possession of a persistent seed bank and seedling establishment) in the evolution of seed size in flowering plants is discussed. Among herbacaeous plants, biennials seem to have larger seeds than annuals and perennials, a difference which may explain the capacity of some biennials to ...

Mechanism of endocarp-imposed constraints of germination of Lannea microcarpa seeds [PDF]
Lannea microcarpa, a multipurpose tree species from the dry African savanna, sheds seeds that often display inhibition of germination. The underlying mechanism was investigated using seeds processed from fully matured fruits collected from natural stands

Efficient seeding techniques for protein similarity search [PDF]
We apply the concept of subset seeds proposed in [1] to similarity search in protein sequences. The main question studied is the design of efficient seed alphabets to construct seeds with optimal sensitivity/selectivity trade-offs.

Incentives and constraints for the use of organic seeds in organic farming: example of Capsicum annuum seeds in the Netherlands and Spain [PDF]
The EU legislation on organic farming was aimed at forcing the use of organic seeds in organic production. However, there are striking differences in its implementation across the EU and the use of organic seeds is still sparse.

SEMIPERMEABILITY OF SEED COVERINGS AND STIMULATION OF SEEDS [PDF]
In a previous paper (6) the writer assumed that the methods of seed stimulation, advocated by Popoff (9) are of little value for agriculture and horticulture [cf. also Bredeman (1)]. Many publications witness the great interest on the subject of seed stimulation.
