Treatment of soybean seeds with mechanical damage: Effects on their physiological potential
(2021-01-01)
Mechanical damage is a serious problem for the physiological potential of soybean seeds, especially when combined with chemical treatment. The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of chemical treatment on the ...
Bottom-up and top-down effects in a pre-dispersal seed predation system: are non-predated seeds damaged?
(Elsevier Gmbh, Urban & Fischer Verlag, 2010-01-01)
Seed predators that severely affect seed germination rates are well known for many plant species. Here, we hypothesised that due to differences in resource allocation within fruits, seed predation can negatively affect ...
Imbibition damage in soybean seeds as affected by initial moisture content, cultivar and production location
(Ista-int Seed Testing Assoc, 2010-01-01)
Soybean seeds may show low germination when evaluated by the paper towel germination test due to high percentages of abnormal seedlings, typical of imbibition damage. This research evaluated the effect of initial seed ...

Seed size variation in the palm Euterpe edulis and the effects of seed predators on germination and seedling survival
(Elsevier B.V., 2006-05-01)
Intraspecific variation in seed size is common in wild plant populations and has important consequences for the reproductive success of individual plants. Multiple, often conflicting evolutionary forces mediated by biotic ...

Seed quality of crambe (Crambe abyssinica Hochst) submitted to different drying methods
(Univ Federal Ceara, Dept Geol, 2016-04-01)
The objective of this research was to evaluate the effects of different drying methods on physiological quality of crambe seeds. Crambe seeds of FMS Brilhante cultivar were produced in the Lageado experimental farm (UNESP, ...

Slow imbibition of Annona emarginata (Annonaceae) seeds: Metabolic and ultrastructural evaluations
(2017-01-01)
Germination pattern may be affected when seeds are dispersed under flooded conditions or subjected to pre-germination treatments such as immersion in plant growth regulators and priming. We evaluated the metabolic and ...
