520 3 |a The seed technologies related with germination and seed research has provided unprecedented opportunities for the biologic research community. Researchers require such information to rapidly determine the speed of seedling emergence. However, an immense amount of data must be analyzed to achieve this goal. In this paper, we introduce a computer software designed for broad use to facilitate the understanding of germination processes and their analysis. GerminaQuant 1.0 was written in the C++ programming language and presents a user-friendly interface. The accuracy of the software was tested using fifty different matrices, whose output values were compared with other spreadsheets available on the web. With data analysis, we showed that the GerminaQuant is capable of generating mathematical calculations with extreme accuracy, besides have a good performance and wide ease of use in any kind of computer. In addition, the new software has been tested by at least eighty users, which compared functionality, designer and accuracy of the output data. In all variables, the GerminaQuant was evaluated as superior compared to other spreadsheets available on the web. The full GerminaQuant package (for Windows(r), Macintosh(r) and Linux(r)) is freely available to the scientific community and can be easily downloaded from the website (http://www.ufpe.br/lev).
