Hydrotime Model Parameters Estimate Seed Vigor and Predict Seedling Emergence Performance of <i>Astragalus sinicus</i> under Various Environmental Conditions

Seed vigor is an important aspect of seed quality. High-vigor seeds show rapid and uniform germination and emerge well, especially under adverse environmental conditions. Here, we determined hydrotime model parameters by incubating seeds at different water potentials (0.0, −0.2, −0.4, −0.6, and −0.8...
