“…In recent years, morphometric analysis (length, width and thickness, and fresh and dry mass) has been used to detect and interpret differences in the shape and size of seeds (SANTOS et al, 2015;PINHEIRO et al, 2017;ROSO et al, 2019;SANTOS et al, 2020), allowing a better understanding of the relationship between individuals and groups (CHRISTO et al, 2014). The effect of variability in seed size (dimensions) and genetic, physical, and physiological quality has been the subject of several studies with different approaches, considering different performance components in seeds and their resulting seedlings (PELLISSIER, 2013) as well as their mass.…”

The differences observed in the physical properties of the seeds may indicate types of equipment for harvesting and processing, in addition to variability between plants. It was studied the characterization of the dimensions of the seeds, linear and geometric and the viability defined in categories. The results showed that the studied seeds did not reach a spherical shape, and their mass underwent variation resulting from the sorption and desorption process. The morphological characteristics suggested slight differences in the shape of the seeds. A high coefficient of variation was observed for fresh seed mass (18.34%), volume index (18.07%), seed volume (18.07%), and seed surface area (12.47%). Seed colorations showed differences in germination. The analysis concluded that all categories of seeds are viable. These descriptive data indicate that the combination of seed characteristics and the germination process help in methodologies for planting, harvesting, processing, and storage of seeds.
