Seed Water Concentration and Accumulation of Protein and Oil in Soybean Seeds
(Crop Science Society of America, 2014-11)
Seed development is partitioned into a ‘lag’ phase, a ‘seed filling’ phase, and a ‘maturation’ phase. Transitions between phases correspond to seed water concentration (WC) values that are fairly consistent within species. ...

Reciprocal effect of parental lines on the physiological potential and seed composition of corn hybrid seeds
(2017-09-01)
Obtaining corn hybrid seeds (Zea mays L.) with high vigour depends on the parental lines and the direction of the cross, and this relates to seed desiccation tolerance and composition. This research studied reciprocal ...
Composition and clumping of seeds deposited by frugivorous birds varies between forest microsites
(Wiley Blackwell Publishing, Inc, 2011-03)
More frequent deposition of seeds by frugivores beneath plants in fruit could impose spatial limits to the distribution of plants dispersed by animals and contribute to species coexistence. Also, differences in diet and ...
Comparison of methods to estimate soil seed banks: The role of seed size and mass
(Akadémiai Kiadó, 2012-12-21)
There are two main methods for estimating seed density and species composition of soil seed banks: manual seed extraction and seedling emergence. These methods were used to determine and compare seed density and species ...
Imbibition of Swietenia macrophylla (Meliaceae) seeds: the role of stomata
(Oxford University Press, 2006-07-01)
Background and Aims the occurrence of stomata in seed coats is uncommon and there is limited information about their function(s). The aim of this study was to verify the distribution of stomata in seed coats of Swietenia ...
