Ungerminated seed that would not germinate even in proper conditions |
Dormant Seed |
|
Seed that need water, light, or oxygen to germinate. |
Non dormant seed |
|
Small new plants arising from seeds. May be important to distinguish these from new shoots arising from underground vegetative parts. |
Seedling |
|
A circular cluster of leaves that forms after the early seedling stage but before a flower stalk is sent up. |
Rosette |
|
Earliest stage of reproductive growth. Stage just before bloom when flower parts are forming but flower has not yet opened. |
Bud Stage |
|
Flowers have opened. May be further described as early, mid or late bloom
|
Bloom |
|
Seed has formed in the plant is relatively in active. There is little or no energy production or movement of water and nutrients
|
Maturity |
|
Very early emergence stage, in which the leaves are still within the Coleoptile or tightly rolled to form a spike. Usually when the grass is less than 1 inch tall
|
Spike stage |
|
Formation of erect shoots or tillers from the crown of a grass. Also called stooling
|
Tillering stage |
|
Begins after tiller rain when the first node of the stem appears above the soil surface
|
Jointing stage |
|
When the inflorescence had expands the upper leaf sheath. Head is swollen but not yet visible
|
Boot stage |
|
Kernels or not yet ripe and gradually become more dry and firm.
|
Milk and dough stage |
|
When a broadleaf seedling has broken through the soil and before the stem has become erect
|
Crook stage |
|
Early post emergent stage of onion seedlings between the crook stage and the emergence of the first true leaf
|
Flag stage |

|
Particular strains of microbes that can use a herbicide for food may gain advantage over other microbes in the soil
|
Adaptive breakdown |
|
An increase in population of microbes is sometimes termed
|
Soil enrichment |
|
Period of time during which adaptive microbes are increasing in population
|
Lag phase |
|
Refers to the chemical and or physical attraction of a substance to a surface
|
