Table 2. Estimated hydrotime model parameters for 10 alfalfa seed lots.

Seed lot θH (MPa·h) Ψb(50) (MPa) σ φb R 2
1 17.00 −0.74 0.22 0.82
2 22.23 −0.57 0.23 0.97
3 18.65 −0.55 0.20 0.93
4 18.32 −0.77 0.21 0.89
5 15.54 −0.68 0.17 0.94
6 20.56 −0.78 0.25 0.85
7 16.18 −0.68 0.24 0.90
8 15.26 −0.64 0.21 0.95
9 13.37 −0.63 0.19 0.89
10 14.60 −0.67 0.17 0.91

Note:

The θH is constant hydrotime, Ψb(50) is base water potential for 50% of seeds to germinate, σφb is standard deviation of Ψb(50). Coefficients determination (R2) is showing the goodness of fitness of the model fitting. Three replications for each treatment of each seed lot.
