Other claims from this paper (3)
- Method / resource The seedling rate of development index (SRDI) produced acceptable results for all test conditions, unlike the five previously published vigor indices.
- Method / resource The SRDI was particularly good at detecting latent seedling mortality after initial emergence.
- Method / resource Data from actual seed lots grown under controlled conditions did not dispel the conclusions based on simulations.
