Molecular Mobility and Seed Longevity in Chenopodium quinoa
This work analyzed the relationship between water mobility and quinoa seed longevity. Transverse relaxation times ( T 2 s) by time - resolved nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) of four genotypes of quinoa seeds (cultivars Chadmo , NL - 6 , Sajama , and 2 - Want ) equilibrated at relative humidities (R...

Transverse relaxation times ( T 2 s) by time - resolved nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) of four genotypes of quinoa seeds (cultivars Chadmo , NL - 6 , Sajama , and 2 - Want ) equilibrated at relative humidities (RHs) in the range of 22% - 83% were measured. Quinoa seed germination and viability were tested. The curves obtained from seeds equilibrated at low RHs were fi tted best to monoexponential decay, with T 2 values in the range of 100 - 130 ms.

This work analyzed the relationship between water mobility and quinoa seed longevity. Transverse relaxation times ( T 2 s) by time - resolved nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) of four genotypes of quinoa seeds (cultivars Chadmo , NL - 6 , Sajama , and 2 - Want ) equilibrated at relative humidities (RHs) in the range of 22% - 83% were measured. Quinoa seed germination and viability were tested. The curves obtained from seeds equilibrated at low RHs were fi tted best to monoexponential decay, with T 2 values in the range of 100 - 130 ms. The amplitude of the signal was related to the relative amount of lipid and was unaffected by RH. At 50% RH, curves began to fi t biexponential decay best.
