Corn Seed Germination and Vigor Following Freezing during Seed Development

The potential for an early autumn frost to reduce corn (Zea mays L.) seed quality is a concern for seed producers. This study evaluated the effect of freezing rate, freezing temperature (-6, -11°C) and duration (4, 6 h), ear attachment, and endosperm composition on seed germination and vigor (accele...
