On the mechanism of aging in soybean seeds.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Changes in seeds of soybeans (Glycine max [L.] Merr. var. Wayne) which occur during accelerated aging (41 C, 100% relative humidity) showed subsequent loss of vigor, a decline in early respiratory activity, increased leakage of electrolytes, losses of as much as 10% dry weight from imbibing cotyledons, and a decrease in the swelling response of the imbibing system (seed plus H(2)O). Each of these changes with aging is interpreted as resulting from deteriorative changes in membranes.

Evaluation of the effect of maternal Soybean (Glycine max) nutrition on seed quality traits under accelerated aging test
Extended Abstract Introduction: Structural and physiological delicacy of soybean seeds is known as an important quality indicator in the cultivation of this plant, but at the same time, the most chronic problems of soybean seed quality are the reduction of seed quality during storage and before sowing. The effect of some nutrients on the quality of soybean seeds under accelerated aging stress ...
متن کاملEffects of seed aging on subsequent seed reserve utilization and seedling growth in soybean
Reduced seedling growth is a consequence of seed deterioration. The heterotrophic seedling growth can be considered as the product of three components: (1) initial seed weight, (2) the fraction of seed reserves which are mobilized, and (3) the conversion efficiency of mobilized seed reserves to seedling tissues. It is not clear which of these component (s) is affected by seed deterioration. To ...

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 ...
متن کاملTocopherol and Organic Free Radical Levels in Soybean Seeds during Natural and Accelerated Aging.
Soybean seeds which had aged in long-term storage ("natural aging") or by exposure to high temperature and humidity ("accelerated aging") were analyzed for their tocopherol and organic free radical contents. Tocopherol levels remained unchanged during both types of aging. Three principal tocopherol homologues (alpha, gamma, delta) were present in fairly constant proportions throughout. Organic ...
