Classification of temperature response in germination of Brassicas – V.M. Russo, B.D. Bruton, and C.E. Sams – Industrial Crops and Products – 2011

Summary: Knowledge of germination temperature optima/range for brassicas is critical for inclusion of these crops into crop rotations. Variability in Brassica seed germination in response to temperature indicates that there may be the opportunity for flexibility in the planting dates over which these crops can be sown.
