Summary:PCT No. PCT/NL97/00230 Sec. 371 Date Jan. 8, 1999 Sec. 102(e) Date Jan. 8, 1999 PCT Filed Apr. 28, 1997 PCT Pub. No. WO97/42489 PCT Pub. Date Nov. 13, 1997The invention is related to a method and an apparatus for sorting seeds for the assessment of the maturity and quality of seeds by measuring the amount of chlorophyll fluorescence. Fluorescence of the chlorophyll molecule is induced by irradiating the seeds with electromagnetic radiation with a suitable wavelength and measuring the chlorophyll fluorescence. Properties of the method are the very high sensitivity, being fully non-destructive and the very high speed.
