title: 'EstHTSeed: Hydro Time Analysis of Seed Germination'
version: 0.1.0
doi: 10.32614/CRAN.package.EstHTSeed
abstract: Dry seed germinates by imbibing water from soil where the physiological
  process of germination starts after sufficient water has been imbibed by the seed.
  The germination time of the seed is inversely proportion to the difference between
  soil water potential and the base seed water potential which is described by hydro
  time model (Bradford, 2002 <https://www.jstor.org/stable/4046371>). The parameters
  of the model like speed of germination, stress tolerance, uniformity of germination
  are unknown fixed values (Ghosh et al., 2026 <https://doi.org/10.1111/aab.70041>)
  which are to be estimated using statistical regression model where the validity
  of the adopted statistical model has been established theoretically. The package
  will help to estimate the tuning parameter for proportion of viable seeds along
  with standard error and p- values for inference.
