Applications of hydrothermal time to quantifying and modeling seed germination and dormancy
TL;DR: The hydrothermal time model provides a robust method for understanding how environmental factors interact to result in the germination phenotype (i.e., germination pattern over time) of a seed population.
Journal ArticleDOI
Modelling biomass production and yield of horticultural crops: a review
TL;DR: The strong features of explanatory crop growth models are the simulation of light interception and gross photosynthesis, while the weak features are the Simulation of leaf area development, maintenance respiration, organ abortion, DM content and product quality.
Journal ArticleDOI
A water relations analysis of seed germination rates.
TL;DR: An alternative approach is presented, based upon the timing of radicle emergence, to characterize the relationship of seed germination rates to Psi, and finds that the rate of endosperm weakening is sensitive to PSI or turgor.

Time, Temperature and Germination of Pearl Millet (Pennisetum typhoides S. & H.) II. ALTERNATING TEMPERATURE
TL;DR: In this paper, the seeds of pearl millet were germinated on wet filter paper at temperatures up to 50 °C, where the temperature was held at 50°C during imbibition and was then lowered to 32°C or 25°C.
The Influence of Temperature on Seed Germination Rate in Grain Legumes
TL;DR: Co veil et al. as discussed by the authors investigated the influence of temperature on seed germination rate in grain legumes and found that at constant temperatures warmer than 7i(G) there were negative relations between temperature and rate of germination to the maximum temperature for germination, Tm(G).

Some notes on temperature relations in plant physiological processes
TL;DR: What the position of the plant physiologist towards these two extreme fields of activities is and what sort of contributions he may attempt is evaluated, without necessarily being reduced to either an amateur biophysicist or biochemist or to an amateur ecologist.
