Abstract

Image analysis is a state-of-the-art technique for seed quality testing. This tool provides vast usage in evaluation of various physiological and morphological characteristics of the seed with a more comprehensive perception. It is based on the extraction of numerical data from a captured image for characteristics like colour, size, shape of seed and seedlings and their subsequent processing with the help of suitable computer software. Speedy analyses, cost-effectiveness, automatic nature and user-friendly environment for work are some important advantages of Image Analysis over other conventional techniques. Numerous software have been developed for application in different fields of seed science research like germination studies, vigour estimation, varietal identification and purity testing etc. and most of these showed their potential adoption in the future as such or with some required transformations.
