In recalcitrant seeds seed coat removal has good results but in orthodox seeds testa removal have no much effect.
I dont think so. Seed coat is a physical means of defense any alteration in it may make the embryo vulnerable to damages, fungal infection etc.
The seed will eventually be sown in the field, so will need it's seed coat for protection as Armit says. In the laboratory, we can experiment, but if results can't be replicated in a field situation, then it's not much help.
Thanks to everyone....was very helpful

The first lane is 1kb ladder, the second lane is the ligation reaction, the third lane is plasmid only control. Previously the same PCR product gave clean bands but now it isn't and I don't know why.
