- 1. Pregerminated seeds comprising desiccation tolerant emerged radicles wherein the emerged radicles contain elevated levels of sucrose relative to non-desiccation tolerant emerged radicles of the same plant species and wherein said desiccation tolerant seeds have an overall moisture content in the range of about 35% to about 55% by weight of the seeds and are capable of resuming growth when planted.
- 3. Pregerminated seeds comprising desiccation tolerant emerged radicles wherein the emerged radicles contain elevated levels of sucrose relative to non-desiccation tolerant emerged radicles of the same plant species and the moisture content of said desiccation tolerant seeds lies in the range of about 4% to about 12% by weight of the seeds and are capable of resuming growth when planted.
- 11. Pregerminated seeds comprising desiccation tolerant emerged radicles and having an overall moisture content in the range of about 35% to about 55% by weight of the seed wherein the embryos of the seed have an elevated sucrose level relative to the embryos of pregerminated seeds with non-desiccation tolerant emerged radicles of the same plant species.
- 12. Pregerminated seeds comprising desiccation tolerant emerged radicles wherein the moisture content of said seeds is in the range of about 4% to about 12% wherein the embryos of the desiccation tolerant seeds have an elevated sucrose level relative to the embryos of pregerminated seeds with non-desiccation tolerant emerged radicles of the same plant species.
