Plantability and moisture content of naked and pelleted seeds of supersweet (Sh2) corn during cold storage conditions

Abstract: -The supersweet (Sh 2 ) corn seeds have a thin tegument and an irregular shape, which hinder the sowing procedure. As a function of those factors, the significance of using the pelleting process to improve sowing and standardize the stand of plants in the field without the need of thinning within the row is emphasized. Although this technique has already been known for many years, little has been studied on the effect of such procedure on the plantability and on the moisture content of the supersweet corn seed… Show more
