Abstract:

Seed storage and germination, particularly of fruit crops, is a major problem in arid region. Therefore, the seeds of different age of aonla were evaluated for germination and vigour attributes in polythene tubes under field condition. The germination pattern & seedling growth showed a steady decline over a period of storage of seeds. However, the loss of germination percentage and vigour index was more pronounced from 10th months of storage under ambient condition. Further, there was 73.7 and 90.8 percent loss in germinability and vigour index 10th months old seed in comparison to fresh seeds. There had also seen gradual increase in time taken for germination over a period of storage.
