These might include furry leaves, pebbles or sand, seeds, feathers, ice.
The pellet was resuspended in one milliliter of sterile YMB or PMM medium and pipetted 100 μL onto a scaffold, which here is a nitrocellulose filter, sand or seed.
Sand and seed were hand-broadcast into the experiment sites and raked into the soil.
In the tests carried out by the Seridó Experimental Station, in Cruzeta, Rio Grande do Norte, untreated seeds were compared with sanded seeds, and with seeds rubbed with sand in a mortar, for 10, 15 and 20 minutes; germination rates recorded were 25%, 81%, 68%, 86% and 100% respectively, according to Azevedo (1955).
He filled 20 bottles with a mix of sand and seeds - each bottle containing 50 seeds from each of 21 species of plant.
Each packet contains one of four species of weed seeds with sand and simulates seed survival as affected by various cover crops.
Where Monet's were dappled, soft-focus proto-abstractions, Ms. Snyder's canvases center on shimmering pools of paint ringed or clogged with sand, straw, seeds, cloth, papier-m??nd twigs.

The sand rice seeds have excellent nutrition value and have been historically consumed by local populations in the desert regions of northwest China.
The sand rice seeds were collected at Shapotou Desert Research & Experiment Station (SPT, 37°27′38″N, 104°59′59″E) and Naiman Desertification Research Station (NM, 42°59′23″N, 120°46′01″E), Cold and Arid Regions Environmental and Engineering Research Institute, Chinese Academy of Sciences.
The nutrition values of sand rice seeds are comparable with the Amaranthaceae species quinoa [ 17], and archaeological records showed that sand rice has been used as army provisions in Tang Dynasty (AD 618 907) in China [ 17, 18].
