MAIZE SEED VIGOR AND ITS EFFECTS ON CROP CULTIVATION CYCLE

(Fig. 1) it could be speculated that this species can build up in the soil seed bank (i.e., is capable of dispersing in time), and that soil cultivation may actually enhance

Results from this two-year study provided useful information regarding the assessment of onion seed physiological potential, and indicated the saturated salt accelerated aging and

Among the factors that affect seedling emergence and crop establishment are seed germination and vigor, which, according to Hampton (2002), has an important influence on

containing zinc: no micronutrient, micronutrient 1 (1% Mn, 0.1% Mo, 10% Zn); micronutrient 2 (0.3% B; 0.3% Co; 3% Zn), where micronutrient treatments were combined with

The Cu tissue concentration in roots presented a linear response for both formulations, increasing as Cu dosages increased, while shoot concentration presented a quadratic

Evaluating cultivar performance throughout each year, it was possible to observe that in the first agricultural year (2003/2004) the CD 215 cultivar was superior on the first

Thus, the objective of this research was to determine the effects of 2,4-D and dicamba simulated drift on soybean injury, height, yield, seed germination and vigor when applied

In Ponta Grossa, plants grown under the lowest sowing density, from high vigor seeds, presented the highest height (Table 4), which may be related to the lower number
