Preventing thermoinhibition in a thermosensitive lettuce genotype by seed imbibition at low temperature
Lettuce (Lactuca sativa L.) seed germination is strongly temperature dependent and under high temperatures, germination of most of genotypes can be erratic or completely inhibited. Lettuce seeds of 'Dark Green Boston' (DGB) were incubated at temperatures ranging from 15degrees to 35degrees...
