About the Book: Seed Invigoration: Treatments and Quantification of Vigour
Seed treatments for extending longevity of dry-stored orthodox seeds and
maintenance of vigour and viability of seed lots and field performance potential
of crops have been covered for commercial adaptation by the predominantly small
and marginal farmers. The research findings are based on development of seed
hydration-dehydration as well as dry (non-aqueous) seed treatments in the
University of Calcutta during the last over four decades involving a large
number of post-graduate students, pre-and post-doctoral fellows and faculty
members.
