Five varieties of Indian bean and one local variety were taken in the investigation to assess the seed health evaluation by roll paper towel method. The seeds were placed on moist paper towel at equidistance and covered with another moist paper towel and rolled carefully without disturbing the already arranged seeds. Tie the towel with rubber band at both the ends. Incubate it for four to five days at room temperature. Examine normal and abnormal seedlings, cause of abnormalities, failure in germination and ungerminated seeds by naked eye and presence of mycoflora by stereo-binocular microscope. Maximum frequency of mycoflora were recorded from local variety seed lot (99.98%) and IS- 12 variety showed minimum frequency of mycoflora (92.84%).
