Effect of Accelerated Aging on Seed Germination, Vigour, Lipid Peroxidation, and Membrane Integrity in Wheat
The effects of environmental treatments known to rapidly shorten seed viability were compared along with cultivar response to the aging process. Seed germinability, coleoptile expansion, electrolyte leakage, and free radical-mediated lipid peroxidation were measured. Aging treatments produced a rapid and significant re …
