ISTA Workshop on Advanced Seed Vigour Testing Add event to my calendar International Seed Testing Association (ISTA)* Bangalore, India The workshop will be focused on two of the ISTA validated tests, the Radicl
This work aimed to scientific harvesting time of hybrid rice for being high vigour with high & stable seed yield. Field experiments of different harvesting time were conducted in 2013–2014, and germination percentage (GP), vigour index (VI), seed moisture content and 1000-grain weight was ...
The treated seeds were evaluated for per cent reduction of F moniliforme , seed germination, vigour index and field emergence. It was found that the pure culture of P fluorescens was more effective in reducing the F moniliforme infection followed by T harzianum and C globosum than the Bavist...
Nano-priming was found to be effective where seed vigour index (SVI) measurement was performed and was proven to improve seed cell membrane integrity, thereby increasing the phosphorylation efficiency [5]. Seed priming with micronutrient NPs revealed as a new promising mechanism for improving the rat...
Seed vigour is an important aspect of seed quality. It is a quantitative trait which is responsible for overall seed performance in terms of rate and uniformity of seed germination, seedling growth, emergence ability under unfavourable environments and p
Correlation analysis revealed that volatile aldehyde was the optimal index for seed vigour assessment of super sweet corn and dehydrogenase activity was the optimal for sugar‐enhanced sweet corn. On the basis of correlation analysis, regression equations were established for predicting field emergence ...
(Pearson correlation, r = 0.59,P < 0.001). Previously researchers also reported that, seedling emergence correlated positively with SVI16,47, leaf area index (LAI)47,48and plant biomass production15. This has also been observed in other crops, including sorghum (Sorghum bicolor)49and ...
The first three axes of the principal component analysis across the two seasons captured 86.34% of the total variation among the entries and identified seedling vigour index-I, seedling vigour index-II, speed of germination index, percentage germination, seedling establishment, emergence percentage and...
In late circumstances, osmoprimed wheat had the highest biological yield, grain yield, yield index, and less productive tillers per unit area [17]. It is evident from earlier research that primed seeds have demonstrated faster and more consistent emergence, more robust seedlings, and improved ...
Early vigour would also be important for drilled crops. There is a large genotypic variation for seedling emergence from deep soil. Lee et al. (2017) found this variation to be associated with mesocotyl length for seed sown at 5 cm depth. Using 57 rice genotypes, they found indica genotypes...
