The viability in grains varies both senses.

.1 The degree of success of a germination event varies; it depends on various factors, among which one is the degree of available viability, at the time of the germination.

.2 This ability varies both ways: it may be reduced, and even suspended, and then restored; though, not for ever. I call it “degree of available viability”.

.3 A seed that is not able to germinate at a given time, it could be still alive. Sometimes, specimen of seeds in good conditions are discarded because found either to have a low degree of viability, or to be unable to germinate.

“Available viability” due to EFAs.

.4 The changing “available viability” in seeds is attributed by me above all to the variability of configurations of the EFAs (Essential Fatty Acids).

Decline of viability.

.5 The seeds tend to lose their viability as a natural degredation of the configurations of their EFAs, as they tend to switch to higher energy states, as a function of temperature and the passage of time, by means of configurational reactions, inverse to the dissipative ones.

.6 Such decline of viability occurs above all during the periods when the lunar phase velocity is decreasing (global cycle: see next page).

Recovering of viability.

.7 While the viability is lost by seeds as an almost continuous and slow process, its recovering takes place during a series of short dissipative events, at given times, when all the constraints are satisfied.

.8 For the seeds at rest with regard to the Earth, the recovering of viability may take place only within the periods during which the lunar phase velocity is increasing (experiment C), in inverse proportion to its acceleration, ceteris paribus (experiment E).
