Soybean (Glycine max L. Merr.) seeds are highly sensitive to the environmental conditions experienced in STORAGE. The objectives of this study were identify QTLs for soybean seed storability by evaluating viability and vigor investigating candidate genes these traits detected QTL regions. These will aid developing cultivars with a high capacity storability. 109 90 recombinant inbred lines (RILs...

Seed ageing is influenced by two environmental factors, RH and temperature. The deterioration of the stored seed is a natural phenomenon and the seeds tend to lose viability even under ideal storage conditions. Accelerated ageing has been recognized as a good predictor of the storability of seed lots. Aged seeds show decreased vigour and produce weak seedlings that are unable to survive once re...

Pricing options on electrical power is important because of the worldwide trend toward deregulated electricity markets. It is fascinating because of the exotic nature of most power derivatives and because of the many unique features of electricity markets. One of these unique features is that electrical power cannot, in appreciable quantities, be stored. While this plays havoc with arbitrage-fr...

Pomegranate (Punica granatum L.) arils are so perishable and have very short storability after extracting from the fruit peel. Therefore, several techniques been used for improvement of arils’ storability. Among these techniques, edible films coatings a long history in food preservation; where most studies focused on coatings. present study aimed to test performance clove extract incorporated g...
