This can be influenced by a variety of factors, including genetic makeup, environmental conditions, and the presence of diseases or parasites.
Cell Viability[edit]
Cell viability is a measure of the proportion of live, healthy cells within a population. This can be determined through various assays that measure parameters such as metabolic activity, membrane integrity, or enzyme activity.
Seed Viability[edit]
In botany, seed viability refers to the ability of a seed to germinate and grow into a healthy plant. This can be influenced by factors such as the age of the seed, storage conditions, and the presence of diseases or pests.
Economic Viability[edit]
