| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Two indices, 1: E/A, where A is the amount of water absorbed by a seed before absorption was suspended and E is the amount of water evaporated from a seed after then, and 2: water activity (Aw) of a seed were supposed to indicate water infiltration status of a seed. When these ware compared, E/A better correlated with germination percentages and germination growths in germination test under excess water conditions. Although the increase in seed volume during water absorption seemed to be a factor related to mechanical damage of a seed tissue resulting in suppressed germination growth under excess water conditions, it correlated even lower, compared to E/A and Aw, with the results obtained from germination test under excess water conditions.
From the above, E/A was a superior index for the evaluation of the germination resistance under excess water conditions. It was also shown that more effective E/A values are available by correcting them taking the size of a seed into account.
