“…The typical fruit of the Poaceae family (e.g., cereals and grasses) is a caryopsis, comprised by the embryo, the starchy endosperm, and the outer aleurone endosperm, surrounded in turn by the nucellar layer, the testa (seed coat) and the pericarp. In addition, the caryopsis of barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) and oats (Avena sativa L.) have an adherent outer coat or husk or hull consisting of the glumellae-lemma and palea-or the glumes, which are not removed, enclosing the caryopsis [3][4][5]. In contrast to species in the Amaranthaceae family, the seeds of species in this family are characterized by a thin fruit coat-the husk or hull.…”

The objective of seed testing is to provide high-quality seeds in terms of high varietal identity and purity, germination capacity, and seed health. Across the seed industry, it is widely acknowledged that quality assessment needs an upgrade and improvement by inclusion of faster and more cost-effective techniques. Consequently, there is a need to develop and apply new techniques alongside the classical testing methods, to increase efficiency, reduce analysis time, and meet the needs of stakeholders in seed testing. Multispectral imaging (MSI) and near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) are both quick and non-destructive methods that attract attention in seed research and in the seed industry. This review addresses the potential benefits and challenges of using MSI and NIRS for seed testing with a comprehensive focus on applications in physical and physiological seed quality as well as seed health.

“…They possess a juicy pericarp with abundant pulp and water and occasionally fibrous material. Fleshy fruits include drupes, berries, pomes, pepos and hesperidia (Cerri and Reale, 2020). After double fertilization the ovary undergoes cell division followed by cell expansion, a phase responsible for the final size of the fruit.…”

Seeds are known to have significant biological importance in nature, and they have high economic value in agriculture. This review discusses the physiological, biochemical, and hormonal aspects involved in the seed-fruit relationship, highlighting the main implications that seeds have on fruit set and growth, development, and abscission of some fleshy fruits. Fleshy fruits, with the exception of some parthenocarpic species, require pollination and double fertilization for seed formation. This contributes to the stimulation of hormone synthesis for auxins, gibberellins, cytokinins, and brassinosteroids. These hormones are required for seed formation and, in turn, for fruit development; and they determine fruit set, final fruit size, fruit shape and quality characteristics in some fruits. This knowledge is necessary for successful management of the cultivation of species producing fleshy fruits.

Los frutos formados posteriores a la antesis floral, que son infectados por M. roreri, no culminan su desarrollo.…”
