DOI: 10.1002/aps3.70032
Abstract: Abstract Premise Studies comparing seed longevity between species or genotypes commonly measure seed longevity as the time it takes for seed lot viability to drop to 50% (p 50). However, p 50 is influenced by… read more here.

DOI: 10.1038/s41598-017-08116-5
Abstract: Seed priming is a commercially used technique for improving seed performance including germination. However, the treatment sometimes reduces seed longevity as a side effect, limiting the storable period or longevity of the seeds. To overcome… read more here.
