Seed germination and vigor.
Germination vigor is driven by the ability of the plant embryo, embedded within the seed, to resume its metabolic activity in a coordinated and sequential manner. Studies using "-omics" approaches support the finding that a main contributor of seed germination success is the quality of the messenger RNAs stored during embryo maturation on the mother plant. In addition, proteostasis and DNA inte...
متن کاملStandardization of Seed Vigor Tests
The last 30 years have led to increasing dissatisfaction by seed producers and consumers with the standard germination test as the sole criterion of seed performance potential presented on a seed label. As a result, new seed testing techniques have been formulated known as seed vigor tests that provide more sensitive measures of seed quality. The ISTA and AOSA Vigor Test Committees have been at...

متن کاملProteome Analysis of Poplar Seed Vigor
Seed vigor is a complex property that determines the seed's potential for rapid uniform emergence and subsequent growth. However, the mechanism for change in seed vigor is poorly understood. The seeds of poplar (Populus × Canadensis Moench), which are short-lived, were stored at 30 °C and 75 ± 5% relative humidity for different periods of time (0-90 days) to obtain different vigor seeds (from 9...
متن کاملPredicting Harvest Labour Allocation in Bell Pepper Production
In the production of tomatoes in greenhouses, a more or less constant number of tomatoes are ready for picking at each harvest time. In the production of bell peppers, however, large fluctuations exist in number of fruits ready to pick. This major problem in bell pepper production is called ‘flushing’: weeks with high yields are alternated by weeks with low yield. This irregular harvest pattern...
