SEED TESTING

It is my distinct honour and privilege to welcome you to the Advances in Crop Science and Technology.
The Advances in Crop Science and Technology is an open access journal; all the articles are peer reviewed by eminent people in the field. Journal strives to publish and get a worthy impact factor by quick visibility through its open access guiding principle for world class research work.
Seed testing is performed for a number of reasons, including research purposes or to determine if seed storage techniques are functioning. There are four tests most commonly done. The first two listed below are common for scientific research. For commercially sold seed, all four of these tests are done in dedicated laboratories by trained and usually certified analysts. The tests are designed to evaluate the quality of the seed lot being sold.
Germination test : Reports the percentage of seed that germinated. In commercial settings, tests are usually made in either 200 or 400 seed samples. Viability test (TZ test). Evaluation (examining the seed for a color change in the embryo). Purity test: The percentage of seed described on the label that is actually found in the quantity of seed. Weed test: Examines a sample of seed and identifies every seed that is different from the labelled seed kind.
We always encourage your research works under the scope of our Journal “Advances in Crop Science and Technology”.
