Other claims from this paper (12)
- Observation Seed lots differed significantly in final emergence in both runs.
- Association Slower soil emergence was associated with lower final emergence.
- Association Slower emergence was associated with smaller seedlings.
- Association Soil differences corresponded with moist-towel germination differences.
- Association MJGT and MGT at 13C were positively correlated with MET.
- Association MJGT and MGT at 13C were negatively correlated with seedling size.
- Association MJGT and MGT at 13C were positively correlated with variation in seeding length.
- Association MJGT at 20°C was closely related to MJGT and MGT at 13°C.
- Association Mean root length was lower in slower germinating lots at both temperatures.
- Association Root length was more variable in slower germinating lots at both temperatures.
- Mechanism The authors propose early and synchronous first germination signs as determinants of soil performance.
- Method / resource Comparative mean germination time has potential as an indicator of field emergence.
