Abstract:Since early 1930s when the first corn hybrids were commercially grown, innovations in agriculture industry have had an unprecedent worldwide impact to meet the demands for food of an exponentially‐growing population. In particular, seed technology research has largely contributed to improve crop performance over the years. Ultrasonic treatment of seeds is a green technology with a promissory impact on food industry, enhancing the germination and seedling development in different species, through the stimulatio… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
