Incoming seed is examined to determine embryo count to help decide how much seed should be sown, and/or which capsule would be the best to sow. Permanent sample slides are also prepared. Each separate package of seed is examined because these are generally from separate capsules, which is what we request from our donors.

Seed Assay Number:		7911
Packet Code Number:		1A07911GN
Harvest date:		08/20/2018
Received as:		Dry capsule
Date Received:		08/23/2018
Number of Capsules Combined:		1
Comments:		Capsule on stem Capsule appears clean and intact. Seed is medium tan to the naked eye, and free flowing. Large seeds are windsock shaped, irregularly curved, and have large sized American football-shaped brownish-yellow embryos centrally located which are 1/6 the length of the seed. Seeds with bad or no embryos are much smaller.
Seeds that appeared to have good embryos, by count:		76%
Dark enclosures in the seed are trapped air bubbles. Photographed with transmitted light. Scale    1 mm or 0.040 inches   Photo by Phyllis Meyers Bright enclosures in the seed are trapped air bubbles. Photographed with reflected light. Scale    1 mm or 0.040 inches   Photo by Phyllis Meyers
