Intra-Specific Variation in Desiccation Tolerance of Citrus sinensis ‘bingtangcheng’ (L.) Seeds under Different Environmental Conditions in China.

Intra-specific variation in seed storage behaviour observed in several species has been related to different maternal environments. However, the particular environmental conditions and molecular processes involved in intra-specific variation of desiccation tolerance remain unclear. We chose Citrus sinensis ‘bingtangcheng’ for the present study due to its known variability in desiccation...

More on seed longevity phenotyping.

Understanding the relative longevity of different seed lots, perhaps of different species or genotypes, but also following production under different environments or using different cultivation methods, or following different post-harvest treatments, is relevant to anyone concerned with the retention of seed lot viability and vigour during storage. However, different scientists...
