Abstract

Changes in total and a-amylase synthesis were compared in two wheat samples aged up to 70 % viability level. The results showed that differences in amylase levels can be detectable between unaged and aged wheats and also between the two aged samples. Thus seed viability loss is characterized by decreases in amylase production. However, these changes appear to affect the germination rate, but not the final germinability.
