Other claims from this paper (19)
- Intervention effect First-year seed germination did not differ between normal and dry storage in each crop.
- Intervention effect Second-year dry storage reduced seed germination relative to normal storage.
- Observation Poor germination after dry storage was greatest in Nori-Asa.
- Observation Poor germination after dry storage was intermediate in esculentus.
- Observation Poor germination after dry storage was least in Manihot.
- Intervention effect Mechanical seed-coat injury restored germination of dry-stored seed to that under normal storage.
- Mechanism Dehydration-related mechanical change of the seed coat impaired water absorption and germination.
- Observation Nori-Asa had the largest seed water content in both storage conditions.
- Intervention effect Seeds under normal storage were larger and heavier than dry-stored seeds.
- Observation Manihot had the greatest water-absorbing ability, without a storage-condition difference.
- Intervention effect Normal-stored esculentus seeds absorbed more water than dry-stored seeds.
- Intervention effect Normal-stored Nori-Asa seeds absorbed more water than dry-stored seeds.
- Observation A light line occurs in the seed coat of esculentus.
- Observation A light line occurs in the seed coat of Nori-Asa.
- Observation The light line is absent from the Manihot seed coat.
- Observation Nori-Asa seed-coat inner palisade tissue was thicker than in its parents.
- Observation Dry-stored seed respiration was the same across the three crops.
- Observation Under normal storage Manihot had the lowest seed respiration.
- Observation Nori-Asa had the largest seed peroxidase amount under both storage conditions.
