Abstract
SummaryNineteen out of 50 Chantenay carrot seed lots (almost 40%) showed a significant reduction in germination at 10 °C compared with 20 °C. Seed advancement by alternate wetting and drying increased the germination at 10 °C of some seed lots but was not generally applicable as a method for reducing temperature sensitivity of germination. Mean embryo length was increased by only 4% after seed advancement; this increase did not appear to be associated with temperature-related germination characteristics of the seed lot.
