Seed Germination of Almond Species
Almonds have hard shells (endocarps), and in some species, mechanical and/or chemical scarification, such as immersion in sulfuric acid, is required... -
Seed Dormancy and Germination
Seeds are highly dehydrated, quiescent or resting structures, and carriers of next generation in the life cycle of plants. Seeds have different... -
Seed Dormancy and Regulation of Germination
Seed germination and dormancy are vital components of seed quality; hence, understanding these processes is essential for a sound seed production... -
Seed Nutrient and Seed Hormonal Contents Underlying Anaerobic Germination Tolerance in Black Coloured Rice Landraces of Tamil Nadu
AbstractGood seed germination is a prerequisite for direct-seeded rice cultivation to withstand anaerobic conditions. In transplanted rice...
