Effect of Storage Periods on Physical Quality and Seed Vigor of Four Varieties of Sorghum (Sorghum Bicolor [L.] Moench)

Abstract: The availability of good physical quality and high seed vigor is expected to occur with good handling of storage. The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of two storage periods [10 months (p1)

“…Consumption of the seed starch reserve due to continual respiration deteriorated the seed quality, affecting germination and emergence (Wang et al, 2018). Besides, the seedling rate in sorghum after storage for 10 months was 78% higher than storage for12 months with 59.5% (Timotiwu et al, 2017). The results presented here showed that seed aging through the long-term storage impaired germination and seedling emergence rates significantly in the majority of cultivars with two exceptions (Table 3).…”

“…In addition, seedling biomass indicates the amount of nutrient supply inside the plant. High seeds vigor allow seeds to have enough energy to germinate and supply nutrient stock during the germination process (Timotiwu et al 2017). Table 2.…”

“…Reporters reported that all varieties of sorghum were stored at storage room with temperature of 38°C and RH ± 48% for 12 months yielded damage seed was higher than stored for 10 months, by 24.19%, 14.73% [29]. Seed vigor as shown by the percentage of total normal seedling stored at storage room with temperature of ± 18°c and RH ± 48% for 12 months was lower than stored at storage room for 10 months, by 59.50%, 78.00%, respectively.…”
