Oat kernel size uniformity is of interest to the oat milling industry because kernel size is impor- tant in the dehulling process. Previous studies indicated that oat kernel size distributions are bimodal. In this study oat spikelets were dis- sected into primary, secondary, and tertiary kernels and kernel size distributions were deter- mined for each of these kernel orders by digi- tal image analysis. Spikelets with two kernels are the most abundant, and their primary and secondary kernels… Expand
