  2. Germination - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Germination

    It is a measure of germination time course and is usually expressed as a percentage, e.g., an 85% germination rate indicates that about 85 out of 100 seeds will probably germinate under proper conditions over the germination period given. Seed germination rate is determined by the seed genetic composition, morphological features and ...

  3. Vernalization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vernalization

    In 1857 an American agriculturist John Hancock Klippart, Secretary of the Ohio Board of Agriculture, reported the importance and effect of winter temperature on the germination of wheat. One of the most significant works was by a German plant physiologist Gustav Gassner who made a detailed discussion in his 1918 paper.

  4. Leymus chinensis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leymus_chinensis

    De-husking (removing outer-covering of seeds) at constant temperature was shown to also improve germination. [3] The effects of light have had an interesting effect on the germination of Leymus chinensis. The plants were assessed according to three independent variables: effect of light or dark conditions under which germination occurred, the ...

  5. Stratification (seeds) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stratification_(seeds)

    Warm stratification requires temperatures of 15–20 °C (59–68 °F). In many instances, warm stratification followed by cold stratification requirements can also be met by planting the seeds in summer in a mulched bed for expected germination the following spring. Some seeds may not germinate until the second spring. [citation needed]

  6. Seed dormancy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seed_dormancy

    True dormancy or inherent (or innate) dormancy is caused by conditions within the seed that prevent germination even if the conditions are favorable. [7] Imposed dormancy is caused by the external conditions that remain unsuitable for germination [8] Seed dormancy can be divided into two major categories based on what part of the seed produces dormancy: exogenous and endogenous. [9]

  8. Theoretical production ecology - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Theoretical_production_ecology

    When a crop has a temperature sum of e.g. 150 °C·d and a critical temperature of 10 °C, it will germinate in 15 days when temperature is 20 °C, but in 10 days when temperature is 25 °C. When the temperature sum exceeds the threshold value, the germination process is complete.

  9. Sprouting - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sprouting

    The soaking increases the water content in the seeds and brings them out of quiescence. After draining and then rinsing seeds at regular intervals, the seeds then germinate, or sprout. For home sprouting, the seeds are soaked (big seeds) or moistened (small), then left at room temperature (13 to 21 °C or 55 to 70 °F) in a sprouting vessel.
