Abstract
This issue of Seed Science and Technology has a collection of articles that contribute to seed quality, which will be of interest to both farmers and the seed industry. The articles span diverse topics: germination treatments, vigour testing methods, viability equations and management of seed-borne inoculum. However, the majority of articles focus on germination treatments to break dormancy and provide uniform field emergence. Besides this, a review article on seed quality enhancement using seed priming will be highly informative to seed producers to enhance seed quality and hence benefit farmers in particular in developing countries. Many of the species studied are less explored and some are on the verge of extinction, requiring immediate attention. Overall, this issue will be of interest to a wide range of readers, including farmers, seed companies, researchers and conservationists.
