Vavilov's Laws of Seed Variation

Vavilov's Laws of Seed Variation describe how genetic differences occur in plants. They state that seed traits can vary due to genetic factors, environmental influences, or the interaction of both. Variations often appear in predictable patterns, such as over generations or across different environments, and are influenced by factors like heredity, environmental conditions, and chance mutations. These laws help explain how plant characteristics evolve and are crucial for plant breeding and conservation, aiming to maintain or improve crop traits through understanding natural variation and its causes.
