Abstract:
The evolution of seeds was a major reason for the rise of angiosperms to ecological dominance. Seeds of angiosperms are composed of three main structures: the embryo, which will give rise to the next generation; the endosperm, a nurturing tissue whose main function is to deliver nutrients from the mother plant to the embryo; and the seed coat (or testa), a tissue that is derived from the maternal integuments and which provides support and protection to the growing embryo. All three seed components need to exchange signals to ensure co-ordinated growth and development. The present review discus

AbstractThe effects of development of leek seeds at 20/10°, 25/15° and 30/20°C (day/night) and drying of seed harvested at different developmental stages on subsequent performance were examined in each of 3 years. An increase in temperature from 20/10° to 30/20°C reduced mean seed weight from 2.90 to 2.55 mg as a result of a reduction in the duration of seed growth from 80 to 55 days; seed growth rate was unaffected. Seed moisture content reached a minimum, up to 35 days after the attainment of maximum seed dry weight and 115, 90 and 70 days after anthesis at 20/10°, 25/15° and 30/20°C, respec

Fruits serve various functions in relation to the seeds they contain: they often form tough physical barriers to prevent mechanical damage, they may form specialised structures that aid in dispersal, and they act as a site of nutrient and signal exchange between the parent plant and its offspring.

Cakile edentula produces dimorphic seeds from the upper and lower fruit segments. The upper seeds are well adapted to long-distance dispersal and have greater mean seed mass and surface area than those from the lower seeds. Great mean mass of the upper seeds is probably adaptive because it ensured early independent growth of seedlings and thus enhanced their chances of surviving environmental stresses. Large seed reserves also resulted in high chlorophyll content of the cotyledons. Large seed surface area resulted in large cotyledon area and cotyledon area to biomass ratio of the subsequent se

In Arabidopsis, as in the majority of flowering plants, developing seeds promote fruit growth.

Reduced pollen tube growth causes reduced seed set and decreased silique (fruit) size, and this genotype is used to explore the relationship between

The low productivity of cocoa plantations in Indonesia is partly due to the low quality of seeds, which refers to the impeded growth of cultivated cocoa nurseries. Seed is the initial growth of plants so the importance of giving special treatment to seeds will refer to better seed growth. Provision of Plant Growth Promoting Rhizobacteria (PGPR) microbes can produce indoleacetic acid (IAA) in plants to improve the quality of plant growth. This study aims to determine the effectiveness of the provision of Plant Growth Promoting Rhizobacteria bamboo rhizosphere against cocoa seed germination. The

In this study, a manually operated single row maize planter was developed and tested. Parts such as the mainframe, maize hopper, maize metering mechanism, shaft, and seed tube were designed. From the field tests, it was observed that there was a reasonable deviation of the experimented seed spacing from the designed seed spacing, this was as attributed to the speed of the human pushing the seed planter which was 0.83m/s. Also, the experimental results showed that the majority of the holes contained 2 seeds while the least contained 5 seeds. Also, from the experimental results, the seed planter

The primary seed in an oat (Avena sativa) spikelet is larger than the secondary seed. Genotypes varying in primary:secondary seed weight ratios were grown in three seasons at two seeding rates to determine if there were grain yield differences between plots seeded with the two different seed types. Grain yield advantages of 8–15% were found for plots seeded with primary seeds. Plants grown from primary seeds were found to have faster seedling growth rates and shorter periods from seeding to heading and maturity.

AbstractFruit and seed development in Quercus robur L. were studied on a single tree over five consecutive seasons. Patterns of growth in the cotyledons and embryonic axes differed between years and resulted in seeds of very different sizes. Moisture content at shedding also differed between years, and late-shed seeds had lower moisture contents than early-shed seeds. Moisture content at shedding was negatively correlated with desiccation tolerance. Seed development in Q. robur therefore appeared indeterminate and did not end in a period of rapid desiccation.Sensitivity to desiccation in Q. ro

Seed rope direct-seeding is an advanced precision sowing technique that involves encapsulating seeds within rope materials, adhering to specific spacing and quantity, and then deploying these ropes in the field as an alternative to conventional direct-seeding. This method offers the dual benefits of minimal sprout damage and precise control over row-to-seed spacing. The mechanical properties of the seed rope material and the integrity of the wrapped seeds are critical factors that influence the growth and development of the plants’ root system, which in turn is a key determinant for the optimi

Herbicides, as well as plant growth regulators, can be used as a management option for ryegrass seed production, however there is no consensus among authors at which stage of the plant the application is most effective. Thus, this study aimed to evaluate the production and physiological quality of ryegrass seeds in response to the application of herbicides and plant growth regulators

Abstract Seed germination is a complicated physiological process that starts with the seed absorbing water and concludes with the radicle emerging. The kinetics and amount of water uptake by seeds are known to be influenced by both seed surface properties and the surrounding environment. As a result, altering seed surface features are linked to seed medium and is a valuable strategy for controlling seed germination. In the agricultural field, non-thermal plasma surface activation of seeds is currently being investigated as an efficient pre-sowing treatment for modifying seed germination. The i
