Optimal seed water content and storage temperature for preservation of Populus nigra L. germplasm

Impact of Storage Fungi on Soybean Seed Deterioration in Different Storage Conditions and Seed Moisture Content

DOR: 98.1000/2383-1251.1398.6.65.11.1. 1578.1585 Extended Abstract Introduction: Understanding the complex characteristics that control the life span of the seed has ecological, agricultural and economic importance. Inappropriate storage conditions after harvesting destroy a large part of annual yield partly due to microbial activity in the storage. Damage from storage fungi varies based ...

Characterization of seed storage proteins in Populus and their homology with Populus vegetative storage proteins.

We investigated the synthesis and accumulation of vegetative storage proteins (VSPs) in poplar plantlets and the homology between poplar seed storage proteins (SSPs) and VSPs. One-dimensional SDS polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis confirmed that both seed and vegetative storage proteins contained two predominant polypeptides of MW 32 and 36 kDa, but the subunit composition of the polypeptides d...

Effects of abscisic acid mannitol and temperature on invitro storage of potato germplasm

Germplasm Enhancement for Water Stress Tolerance and Storage Insect Resistance in Bread Wheat (Triticum aestivum L.)

This study was carried out during three successive seasons 2004/05, 2005/06 and 2006/07, to evaluate fifty F derived lines (from the F diallel cross), with three check varieties under two different irrigation regimes. 3 2 Twenty different lines were selected from the fifty F lines under each level of irrigation and evaluated under 3 the same conditions in the F and F generations. Also, the effe...

Effect of Seed Storage on Integrity of Grass Germplasm

Experiment on estimation of qualitative changes in populations of meadow fescue (Festuca pratensis Huds.) after seed storage in different conditions were taken. Phenotypical traits for plants derived from seeds stored during 54 months in two different kind of storage conditions were compared. Storage of meadow fescue seed during 54 months in unfavourable conditions resulted in decrease of initi...
