β¦ Synopsis
The relief of the outer surface of the seed coat of 16 diverse cultivars of soybeans, Glycine max (L.) Merrill, was compared on the basis of pattern, mound number and mound height in both air and water media. Significant differences among cultivars were found indicating that surface relief characteristics were cultivar-specific and could be used to describe and distinguish cultivars.

equated to zero. Solution of the resulting equation gives af2~2 = 1.256, From Fig. 2 one can see that the dimensionless velocity attains a maximum value for Y = 1.0 or a ~-1,256/~ 2. Incorporating the latter into Eq. ( 5) yields V0in Y Equation ( 6) is plotted in Fig. 2. A good agreement for all th
