I don't know how it would be used as far as germination, but generally it is used to detect seed coat damage by farm equipment. Some people use it to adjust their machinery during harvesting to reduce the amount of damage to the seed during collection. The seeds are placed in a fast green solution and the cracks or damages in the seed coat are dyed green. This generally only works for lightly colored seed. It is commonly used on corn.

Well, there's seed development when the inflorescences of the seed head stop flowering and everything goes into seed production, and then there is germination, where a plant grows from a seed that was planted in the soil.


Does the storing of a seed before germination effect the germination of the seed?

Yes because of Lauren Hallas.


Where does seed germination take place?

Seed germination typically takes place in the soil. The seed absorbs water from the soil, which triggers the germination process by initiating metabolic functions that allow the seedling to sprout and grow.


What is the relationship between the seed and germination?

A seed is needed if you want to grow a plant- you can't have a plant without a seed. Germination is the first stage of the plant's growth. It's when the seed has JUST sprouted, and sometimes the green that comes out, is very small- the point is the plant is starting to grow, and may continue to do so.


What causes seed germination to begin?

germination begins when seed tissues absorb water.
