Influence of seed size and water restriction on germination of soybean seeds and on early development of seedlings

Germination is a biological process that depends on adequate water supply to embryo development. Water deficit slows this process and depending on intensity and extent of this deficit may cause seed death. Nevertheless, it has not yet been reported whether seed size influences physiological potentia...
