 Author(s): CARVALHO, T. C. de; KRZYZANOWSKI, F. C.; OHLSON, O. de C.; PANOBIANCO, M. ABSTRACT: The assessment of the germination test in wheat seeds varies from 4 to 15 days, because the species normally presents dormancy in freshly harvested seeds. The tetrazolium test can characteri... ... |
 Author(s): ORNELLAS, F. L. S.; SOUSA, A. O. de; ARAÚJO, M. do N.; BARBOSA, R. M.; DANTAS, B. F. Rapid tests that allow the assessment of physiological potential are essential parameters for quality seed and seedling production programs. The aim of this work was to establish parameters of a metho... ... |
 Author(s): ZUCHI, J.; FRANÇA-NETO, J. B.; SEDIYAMA, C. S.; LACERDA FILHO, A. F. de; REIS, M. S. ABSTRACT: Storage is an important step in the production of soybean seeds, mainly in tropical regions, where high temperatures can drastically reduce seed quality. The storage at cooler temperatures m... ... |

Coffee seeds are sensitive to desiccation and are used or stored with different moisture content values, which may affect the results of quality assessment. The aim of this study was to evaluate the c... ... |
 Author(s): GOMES, S. E. V.; GOMES, R. A.; DANTAS, B. F. Seed production, quality and germination are likely to be affected by a drastic climate change in semi-arid areas predicted for the end of the century. We evaluated Anadenanthera colubrina var. cebil... ... |
 Author(s): PEREIRA, R. B.; TORRES, T. B.; SILVA, P. P. da; LUCAS, G. C.; PINHEIRO, J. B.; NASCIMENTO, W. M. ABSTRACT: This study aimed at evaluating the method of inoculation of carrot seeds in a potato-dextrose-agar medium (PDA) added of mannitol. Alternaria radicina was the fungus chosen to test such meth... ... |
 Author(s): NASCIMENTO, W. M. O.; NOVEMBRE, A. D. L. C.; CICERO, S. M. The present work was carried out with the purpose of verifying the effects of seed moisture and air temperature in the maintenance of seed quality |
 Author(s): MARINHO, J. de L.; SILVA, S. R. da; FONSECA, I. C. de B.; ZUCARELI, C. Abstract: Mineral nutrients play an important role in the composition of seeds, influencing the germination rate and the production of vigorous seedlings, which is fundamental for the establishment of... ... |
