Produktbeschreibung
The purpose of storage is to preserve seeds, preserving their physical, physiological and sanitary qualities, for subsequent sowing and obtaining healthy plants after germination. The purpose of stored seeds can be diverse, ranging from the formation of commercial plantations to gene banks for native forests. Depending on the purpose, they may need to be stored for short or long periods. The behaviour of seeds during storage is a function of the factors that affect their preservation, such as temperature, relative humidity, the degree of moisture in the seeds and the type of packaging used. Seed storage has been the subject of studies mainly in humid and hot regions, where these problems are aggravated, and with the aim of collaborating with producers who need to store seeds, we are publishing this bibliographical review on seed storage.
