Other claims from this paper (6)
- Observation Germination percentages were high across all harvest dates.
- Observation Distinct seedling vigor maxima and minima occurred.
- Observation The first and last sampling dates never produced maximum shoot or root dry weight.
- Observation Maximum vigor dates and kernel maturity patterns were hybrid-specific.
- Association Maximum kernel dry weight correlated with maximum shoot and root dry weight.
- Observation The kernel moisture range at initial maximum kernel dry weight was small.
