Soaking injury is a common problem in dry seeds because of the rapid uptake of water. The effects of initial seed moisture content and viability on the susceptibility of pea seeds to soaking injury were investigated. Aged pea seeds lost viability more rapidly during soaking in water than non-aged seeds at both high and low initial seed moisture content.
