Microgreens which are tender immature seedlings of vegetables and herbs are known for their health beneficial effects. The concept of microgreens is generally less popular in many countries including Sri Lanka. Ten species were tested to obtain data

Seed vigour tests enable detection of seedlots with high field emergence and storability. Here, an accelerated aging (AA) protocol is proposed as a seed vigour test for predicting field emergence of wet direct-seeded rice (Oryza sativa) seeds. Seeds

Physical dormancy (PY) occurs in at least 18 angiosperm plant families and is caused by water-impermeable palisade cells in seed (or fruit) coats. Breaking of PY involves disruption or dislodgement of water-gap structures causing the seeds/fruits to

Smoke and in particular karrikinolide (KAR1), a growth promoting compound found in smoke, have been shown to enhance seed germination in phylogenetically diverse plant families from both fire-prone and fire-free ecosystems. We tested the effects of w
