Physical purity testing is a fundamental part of seed quality assessment, ensuring that seed lots meet established purity standards before planting or marketing. ...
Tests have shown that these seeds can grow successfully in soils that are too salty to allow untreated seeds to develop normally. ...
Ron Hadar, Chairman of Vibe Imaging Analytics to learn how the Vibe QM3 can help you to quickly count, measure, and classify seeds and grains based on size and color characteristics. Compared to tedious manual sorting and subjective visual inspection, the work in your lab will instantly become more objective and repeatable with the Vibe. Whether involved in research, breeding, ...
The material was inoculated with a consortium of microbes leading to form stable and mature compost with high organic matter (38%). In order to conduct seed germination tests, Fulvic acid was extracted from the compost. A pot experiment was conducted over a period of 30 days in the green house to study the effect of Fulvic acid on the seed ...
High levels of grain protein content, test weight, and seed size and endosperm color may also add value. Seed yield potential, in part, determines the economic feasibility of producing human food varieties. To determine the potential of food barley production in the dryland production areas of the Pacific Northwest of the United States, 33 ...
Maize (Zea mays L.) breeders are interested in evaluating the seed quality of their inbred lines, as seed quality has a strong relationship to field emergence. There is little information, however, on the influence of the seed quality of the inbred on field emergence of the hybrid. The objectives of this research were to (i) determine whether ...
