File Pine stand near Aegviidu, Jan 2010.jpg thumb Seed trees Scots Pine on a recently logged stand in Northern Estonia Seed trees are tree s left after reproduction cutting to provide seeds for natural regeneration in the silviculture Common methods seed tree method . These trees serve as both the gene source for the new crop of regeneration and as a source of timber during future cuttings. Because of its importance, a seed tree should be carefully chosen based upon both economic and biological factors. Selected seed trees should be the desired species, phenotype phenotypically superior, prolific in seeding and flowering, sturdy and healthy, free of damage, and of good growth form. After the site has been successfully regenerated, seed trees may be commercially harvested or the trees may be retained for visual enhancement and as backup against catastrophic losses of regeneration due to agents such as fire or drought. The presence of seed trees distinguishes the seed tree method from clearcutting . Many people consider the seed tree method more aesthetically pleasing than clearcutting because some mature trees are retained on the site for at least until regeneration becomes well established.

A random seed or seed state , or just seed is a number or Array data structure vector used to initialize a pseudorandom number generator . The choice of a good random seed is crucial in the field of computer security . When a secret encryption key cryptography key is pseudorandom ly key generation generated , having the seed will allow one to obtain the key. If the same random seed is deliberately shared, it becomes a secret key , so two or more systems using matching pseudorandom number algorithms and matching seeds can generate matching sequences of non repeating numbers which can be used to synchronize remote systems, such as GPS satellites and receivers. Random seeds are often generated from the state of the computer system such as the time , a cryptographically secure pseudorandom number generator or from a hardware random number generator . compu soft stub Category Pseudorandom number generators Random seed ca Llavor aleat ria cs Random seed de Seed key fr Graine al atoire pt Semente aleat ria ... more details
Unreferenced date December 2009 In agriculture and gardening , hybrid seed is seed produced by pollination cross pollinated plant s. In hybrid seed production, the crosses are specific and controlled. The advantage of growing hybrid seed compared to inbred lines comes from heterosis . To produce hybrid seed, elite inbred varieties with well documented and consistent phenotypes such as yield are crossed and the resulting hybrid seed is collected. Another factor that is important in hybrid seed production is the combining ability of the parent plants. Although two elite inbred parent plant varieties may produce the highest yields of their crop, it does not necessarily mean that crossing these inbreds will result in the highest yielding hybrid. Combining ability is the term used to describe the level of heterosis that the parents will generate in the resultant seed. Higher combining ability between the parents results in increased performance in the resulting hybrid seed. Hybrids are bred to improve the characteristics of the resulting plants, such as better crop yield yield , greater uniformity, improved color , disease resistance, and so forth. Today, hybrid seed production is predominant in agriculture and home gardening, and is one of the main contributing factors to the dramatic rise in agricultural output during the last half of the 20th century. In the US, the commercial market was launched in the 1920s, with the first hybrid maize . All of the hybrid seeds planted by the farmer will be the same hybrid, which causes the first generation of seed from the hybrids planted to be inbred. This is why hybrid seed is generally not saved from subsequent generations and is purchased for each planting. Hybrid seeds are much dearer than normal seeds, due to the technology, time and effort put in to produce them.
