Presenting the latest findings in the field of seed physiology on the physiological, biochemical, and molecular levels, the Handbook of Seed Physiology: Applications to Agriculture discusses aspects of seed physiology with implications for crop management and utilization. Four sections focus on specific aspects of agricultural problems in the areas of germination and stand establishment; dormancy and the behavior of crops and weeds; seed longevity and storage; and industrial seed quality. Appropriate for graduate students, researchers, and academics, as well as professionals in the agricultural fields, this book explores not only the academic research behind improving crop yields but also the practical applications of that knowledge in the development of tools to enhance seed performance.
