222 Symposium--Vivid Properties of Seeds: Updates from W-3168 on Aging, Preharvest Sprouting & Dormancy

Oral Session
C04 Seed Physiology, Production & Technology
W-3168 (Environmental and Genetic Determinants of Seed Quality and Performance) is a multi-state research fund project, supported by the USDA's Institute of Food & Agriculture, that facilitates interactive seed biology research among US university and federal laboratories. In this symposium, cutting-edge research updates and state of the art reviews will be presented by project members on seed aging, seed dormancy and preharvest sprouting.
