Garside elal. (1979) measured size distributions of seeondary nuelei and reported their variation with supersaturation. Signifieant inerease of nuelei with supersaturation is observed. Thus the proeess is not simply an attrition event alone, but is also related to the level supersaturation at whieh parent erystal is growing. Jones elal. (1986) also observed anomalous growth of seeondary nuelei in a study of the eontinuous MSMPR erystallization of potassium sulphate with eonsequenees inferred for seeondary nueleation rates. Girolami and Rousseau (1986) demonstrate the importanee of initial breeding meehanism in seeded potash alum bateh erystallization. The number of erystals...

Pyrazol-1 -ylalanine, an isomer of histidine, was isolated from Citrullus vulgaris (watermelon) seed and its structure was confirmed by comparison with synthetic material 107). It was the major free amino acid in the dormant dry seed but was present in only trace amounts in vegetative tissue. While present in seed extracts of other members of the Cucurbitaceae, it has not been identified as occurring in members of other plant families. 

Trilinolein is a polyunsaturated fat. This type of fat is an antioxidant that has been linked to a number of potential cardiovascular health benefits. It is found in seed oils such as safflower oil and linseed oil.

In addition to the mechanisms of stress response so far considered, there are several others which have attracted the attention of plant ecologists. These include innate or environmentally determined forms of dormancy in seeds, spores, and vegetative buds, many of which represent adaptive responses restricting plant growth and development to favourable seasons or sites. Dormancy has been the subject of numerous publications and will not be considered here. Instead, opportunity will be taken to refer to two forms of plant response to stress which until recently have received only scarce attention. The first is the phenomenon of stored growth whilst the second involves the response of the developing shoot to mechanical impedance.

A single gene transformation crtB from Erwinia) was sufficient to increase carotenoid levels some 50-fold in seeds of canola (Brassica napus), which already contains low levels of carotenoids (Shewmaker et ah, 1999). This is the most spectacular increase in carotenoid levels of any plant to date.

The case of canola is extraordinary because of the very high level accumulations (50-fold) of leaf-type carotenoids in seeds when the gene was introduced under the seed-specific promoter, napin. The exalbuminous seeds of canola differ from those of genetically engineered rice cereal grains in that they have chloroplasts, which may explain the capacity for hyperaccumulation of carotenoids.

An equally simple chemical study was carried out on phytic acid-aluminosilicate cements (Prosser et al., 1983). Phytic acid, myo-inositol hexakis(dihydrogen phosphate), is a naturally occurring substance found in seeds, and it is a stronger acid than phosphoric acid. Cements were prepared using aqueous solutions of phytic acid, concentrated to 50 wt%, and with 5 wt % zinc dissolved in the acid to moderate the rate of reaction with the glass powder. Discs of cement were prepared and these were... 

In many products, the spin-relaxation properties of the components can be different due to molecular sizes, local viscosity and interaction with other molecules. Macromolecules often exhibit rapid FID decay and short T2 relaxation time due to its large molecular weight and reduced rotational dynamics [18]. Mobile water protons, on the other hand, are often found to have long relaxation times due to their small molecular weight and rapid diffusion. As a result, relaxation properties, such as T2, have been used extensively to quantify water/moisture content, fat contents, etc. [20]. For example, oil content in seeds is determined via the spin-echo technique as described according to international standards [64].
