The effects of seed vigour and moisture stress on the germination and seedling establishment of wheat and sorghum

The experiments reported in this thesis assessed vigour differences between seed lots of wheat and sorghum under suboptimal conditions. A vigour assessment for each lot of both species was quantified by calculating a value for the viability equation constant Ki. Imbibition of seed lots at lower wate...
