Stress Induced Leakage of Sugars as an Estimator of Sweet Corn (Zea Mays) Seed Vigor

The seed vigor of a super-sweet mutant of sweet corn (Sweetie 76) was compared to that of a traditional, non-mutant variety (Jubilee). The inherent seed vigor of a typical super-sweet corn mutant was considerably less than that of a traditional non-mutant variety. Leakage of reducing sugars from sweet corn seeds at a low temperature was not correlated with seed vigor.
