Diploknema butyracea, Seed Grading, Accelerated Ageing, Vigour.Abstract
Effect of accelerated ageing on Diploknema butyracea seed was investigated to evaluate their potential in term of germinability, seedling length, dry matter production and seedling vigour index. Highest seedling vigour index was estimated in larger sized seed (2100.79). However, lowest seedling vigour index was found in smaller sized seed (1209.43). A high vigour seed lot has good storage potential and retains high germination potential during storage, whereas low vigour seed lots show poor storage potential and may show a rapid decline in germination.References
