SeedCalc, a new automated R software tool for germination and seedling length data processing

Abstract: The need to optimize seed quality assessment using new, more accessible, and modern computational resources has led to the emergence of new tools. In this paper, we introduce SeedCalc, a new R software package developed to process germination and seedling length data. The functions included in SeedCalc allow fast and efficient data processing, offering greater reliability to the variables generated and facilitating statistical analysis itself since the data are already processed with the appropriate structure to be statistically analyzed in the R software. SeedCalc is available free of charge at https://CRAN.R-project.org/package=SeedCalc.
