Other claims from this paper (8)
- Association Relative seed weight increased as soaking temperature rose.
- Observation Relative seed weight decreased after 180 min at 50℃.
- Intervention effect Soaking pH had little effect on water uptake in both seed types.
- Intervention effect KCl at 0.01M stimulated water uptake in both seed types relative to water.
- Intervention effect KCl at 0.1M and 0.2M depressed water uptake in both seed types.
- Association Water uptake rates depended more on ionic strength than ion species.
- Intervention effect Removing the seed coat scarcely changed water sorption in soybean seeds with aleurone.
- Mechanism The authors attributed soybean seed water permeability mainly to aleurone-layer characteristics.
