Physiological Quality and Vigor of Coriander (Coriandrum Sativum) Seeds Produced in an Agroecological Transition Area
Journal Title: International Journal of Agriculture Innovations and Research - Year 2018, Vol 7, Issue 2
Abstract
Problems associated with the low vigor of coriander seeds and the establishment are a constant in this culture. In the present work, lots of coriander seeds of cv. Verdão, produced in an agroecological transition area were evaluated, aiming to determine the quality of coriander seeds produced in the agroecological system, thus relating the physiological potential of the seeds with cultivation system. were evaluated: degree of humidity, weight of one thousand seed, electric conductivity test, emergency percentage, first count, emergency Speed Index, Average Time and emergency speed coefficient. The results demonstrate that the seeds produced in an agroecological transition area presented similar physiological quality and vigor to the seeds produced in other cropping systems.
