- Observation Deterioration rates differed among seed lots in 16 of 21 environments using full data.
- Observation Deterioration rates differed among seed lots in 14 of 21 environments using truncated data.
- Association Genotype affected deterioration rate.
- Association Low-vigor seed lots deteriorated faster than high-vigor lots.
- Association Higher storage temperature increased deterioration rate.
- Observation The constant deterioration-rate assumption failed for hybrid corn seed.
