ICI: Glycine Max (Imbibitional Chilling Injury of Soybeans)
| Division: | Biotechnology | | Category: | Junior | | Region: | Chatham-Kent | | City: | Chatham, ON | | School: | St. Ursula E.S. | | Abstract: | This experiment determined the required duration of soybean seed imbibing in a warm environment before cooling was applied in order for imbibitional chilling injury (ICI) to be resisted. Modern soybean varieties experienced minimal ICI, provided that the seed hydrated in a warm environment for at least the initial eight hours. |
