Factors affecting seed and seedling vigour Seed vigour is a term encompassing the sum total of those properties of the seed that determine the potential performance of the seed or seed lot during germination and seedling emergence (Perry‚ 1978). Rapid and uniform germination are among the properties of vigorous seeds (Argerish & Bradford‚ 1989). Low vigour adversely affects such factors as optimal emergence‚ stress resistance and uniform growth of emergent seedlings (Patrick et al‚ 2000) and is
