Time, Temperature and Germination of Pearl Millet (Pennisetum typhoides S. & H.): I. CONSTANT TEMPERATURE

GARCIA-HUIDOBRO, J., MONTEITH, J. L., SQUIRE, G. R.·1982·Journal of Experimental Botany

Abstract

The germination of pearl millet (Pennisetum typhoides S. & H.) seeds was investigated at constant temperatures between 12 �C and 47 �C on a thermal gradient plate. The rate of germination increased linearly with temperature from a base T b to a sharply defined optimum T o beyond which the rate decreased linearly with temperature, reaching zero at T m. The linearity of the response both above and below T o allowed time and temperature to be combined in a thermal time at which a specified fraction of the seeds germinated. Within the population T b and T m were constant.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
