Abstract:

Rubber seeds are one of the products from rubber plantations which are in large numbers but have not been utilized. The flesh of the seeds contains vegetable oil of 45.63% of rubber seeds and can be used as raw material for edible oil. The hard shell of rubber seeds can also be used, one of them being biobriquettes.This study aims to separate the rubber seed flesh from the shell with a mechanically designed crusher and separator of the rubber seed flesh from the rubber seed shell. This machine is designed and made using a single roller crusher as a rubber seed crusher and at the output there i

Accuracy and random selection of seeds when testing the 1000 seeds weight in the laboratory is of great importance in order to ensure the representativeness of the sample and precise information for further packaging process. The aim of this research was to check whether the laboratory seed counter selects seeds by shape and size and whether there is a trend during operation at maximum and reduced speed. Ten species of different seed sizes were used. Ten replicates of 100 seeds were counted by counter, the number of seeds was manually checked and the weight measured. The analysis of the obtain

Abstract The reliability of assessing tamarack seed quality using 95% ethanol to separate empty and full seed was tested using two different methods. X-radiography analysis and germination trials indicated that ethanol flotation of tamarack seed results in the loss of 30-40% of the full seed and over 52% of the germinable seed if floating seed is considered empty and subsequently discarded. Seeds infested by the seed chalcid consistently floated and were removed with the floating seed. X-radiography is the most appropriate method for evaluating tamarack seed quality. North. J. Appl.

Physical and chemical defenses of seeds are essential for plant survival and reproduction. By protecting their seeds from herbivores and other threats, plants can ensure that their offspring have a better chance of surviving and growing into adult plants. Plant seed-size variation can affect their ability to allocate defense resources and nutrients. Smaller seeds tend to contain fewer resources and are likely to be more constrained in resource allocation to defense or to nutrient supply for the germinating seedling than larger seeds.

Abstract:

The use of random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) markers for evaluating seed purity in a commercial F1-hybrid cabbage (Brassica oleracea var. capitata) cultivar is demonstrated. Genomic DNA isolated from single ungerminated seed was found to be suitable for RAPD analysis. DNA from F1-hybrid and its parental lines was subjected to RAPD screening with 36 random decamer arbitrary primers. A total of 241 scorable products were observed with 54 (22%) being polymorphic. The RAPD data showed that the parental lines of this commercial cabbage cultivar were not very closely related. Two primers were

Abstract:

Seed vitality and vigour are the two most common parameters related to seed quality. It is crucial to have reliable methods and tests for seed quality and seed vigour testing. The standard germination test can be used to predict field emergence, but laboratory seed testing conditions are often in conflict with field conditions. Validated tests for vigour evaluation in legumes are the conductivity test, the accelerated ageing test and the tetrazolium test. Also, other types of vigour tests have been used to solve different problems in the seed sector. The modern approach, the computerised image

Abstract:

An obvious relationship between germination sensu stricto and seedling development during post-germination has been considered, but not explained concerning vigor. Taking this into account, we used measurements of water dynamics in germinating seeds and seedling development to clarify that relationship. The biological model was soybean seeds, since it is the most relevant ‘true seed’ produced around world. Our findings suggest that the way energy is used (acceleration) and not its input (velocity) is the main aspect relating seed germination and seedling development, especially when considerin

Seed component plating was also carried out to determine the most active site of infection of the seeds by the fungi. Five fungal species were isolated from the cultivars tested. The

A research study was carried out to examine seed-borne mycoflora associated with mustard seeds and also to compare various methods used in detecting these harmful fungi. These included the Standard Blotter Method, Deep Freezing Blotter Method, 2,4-D Blotter Method, Water Agar Method and Potato Dextrose Agar Method.

Abstract:

Abstract Sorghum has a higher protein nutrient content (11%) than rice (6.8%) per 100 grams of ingredients. However the development and yield of sorghum is still low. One of the causes of low sorghum production yields is because seed deteriorate rapidly. The deterioration of sorghum seeds during storage signals a low seed vigor. So it is necessary to improve seed vigor tests efficiency in order to shorten test time. The objective of this research are determining observation time of Radicle emergence test and determining correlation between Radicle emergence test results with vigor test and see

Abstract:

Little mallow (Malva parviflora L.) is a notorious weed that causes substantial yield losses in winter crops. For effective weed management and seed testing, a deeper understanding of seed dormancy, germination behavior, and dormancy-breaking methods is necessary. Experiments were conducted to determine the effect of seed treatments, i.e., mechanical scarification, acid scarification, hot water treatment, and different germinating temperatures, i.e., 15 °C, 20 °C, or alternating 15–20 °C (16/8 h), on the seed dormancy in M.parviflora. A large proportion of M. parviflora seeds were physically d

Seed quality assessment plays a vital role in seed certification process. The persons those who involved in seed production and seed marketing business in India must follow the legal sections of Seed Act 1966, Seed Rule 1968 and Seed Control Order 1983. To meet out the legal sections the quality of seed must be verified before it is marketed and the quality parameter should be indicated/labelled on the seed containers/packets. The process to verify and confirming the quality level of seed samples will take minimum 15 days duration. Hence the machine developed by Artificial Intelligence (AI) to
