SeedCalc

Functions to calculate seed germination and seedling emergence and growth indexes. The main indexes for germination and seedling emergence, considering the time for seed germinate are: T10, T50 and T90, in Farooq et al. (2005) <10.1111/j.1744-7909.2005.00031.x>; and MGT, in Labouriau (1983). Considering the germination speed are: Germination Speed Index, in Maguire (1962), Mean Germination Rate, in Labouriau (1983); considering the homogeneity of germination are: Coefficient of Variation of the Germination Time, in Carvalho et al. (2005) <10.1590/S0100-84042005000300018>, and Variance of Germination, in Labouriau (1983); Uncertainty, in Labouriau and Valadares (1976) ; and Synchrony, in Primack (1980). The main seedling indexes are Growth, in Sako (2001), Uniformity, in Sako (2001) and Castan et al. (2018) doi:10.1590/1678-992x-2016-0401; and Vigour, in Medeiros and Pereira (2018) doi:10.1590/1983-40632018v4852340.
