“…The lower 1000SW recorded with plants developed from 8% MC could be due to reduced plant growth and resources utilization associated with imbibitional damage (of seeds with cracks in the seed coat) and slow membrane repair. The period of membrane repairs is shorter for seeds with high moisture content than those of low moisture content [26]. The variation observed could also be due to the influence of the factors in preserving seed nutrient reserve in storage to produce vigorous seedlings on the field leading to good seed filling [27][28][29][30].…”

Common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) provides nutritional, economic and health benefits. Ghana has introduced the first four commercial varieties for adoption. Maintaining seed quality in storage is challenged in the humid regions due to high temperature and high relative humidity. The study determined the interactive effects of seed moisture content (MC) and packaging material on quality of seeds stored for 8 months and subsequent seed yield and yield related components. A 2x2 factorial in Randomized Complete Block Design (RCBD) was used, replicated three times. Seeds were dried to 8 and 11% MC, kept in polythene bags and plastic containers and stored for 8 months under ambient and cold conditions. There were no significant differences (p>0.05) for plant stand at two weeks after planting, days to first and fifty percent flowering, chlorophyll content, number of pods per plant, number of seeds per pod, and seed yield. Leaf area index of plants developed from seeds dried to 8% MC and packed in polythene bags were significantly higher than the other interaction effects. The lowest plant stand was observed in plants developed from seeds dried to 11% MC and packed in plastic containers. 1000SW of seeds dried to 11% MC and packaged in plastic containers were 32.77% higher than in seeds dried to 8% MC and packaged in plastic containers. The Ennepa common bean seeds can be dried to 11% MC and packaged in polythene bags and stored for 8 months without significant seed deterioration.

“…Accordingly, seeds stored at -10°C had the highest germination capacity in all storage months compared to the two storage temperatures. Many authors also reported that low temperature and low relative humidity are required to maintain the quality of the seeds (Schwallier et al 2011;Silva et al 2019). also reported that the storage environment influences the response of seed storage behavior.…”

“…Hence, proper seed storage minimizes the rate of deterioration and the loss of viability (Singh et al 2017). Environmental storage conditions such as temperature and seed water content are the most relevant factors for conserving seed viability (Silva et al 2019). The impact of moisture content and temperature on seed quality is, therefore, of particular significance in tropical countries where ambient conditions tend to lead to a rapid loss in seed quality (Singh et al 2017;Ibraheem et al 2021).…”

Abstract. Bareke T, Addi A, Roba K, Kumsa T. 2022. Effect of storage temperature and packing materials on seed germination and seed storage behavior of Schefflera abyssinica. Nusantara Bioscience 14: 141-147. Knowledge of seed storage behavior is crucial for developing appropriate ex-situ conservation strategies. The main objective of this study was to determine the seed storage behavior of Schefflera abyssinica (Hochst. ex A. Rich.). A factorial combination of three temperatures (-10, 0, and 22°C) levels, two types of packing containers (polythene bag and aluminum bag), and eight periods of storage (0, 30, 60, 90, 120, 150, 180 days, and for a year) level was used to determine the germination capacity and storage behavior of the seeds. Accordingly, seed storage temperatures and storage period (up to 1 year) have a significant effect on the germination (p<0.01) of S. abyssinica. The highest average germination percentage of S. abyssinica seeds was obtained after 2 months of storage under all conditions. The seed storage period influences the germination of S. abyssinica by 47.8%. The germination percentages of S. abyssinica seeds have shown significant differences in storage temperatures. Seeds stored at -10°C showed the highest germination percentage in all storage periods compared to the two storage temperatures. Generally, the highest germination capacity of S. abyssinica seeds was between 7% and 9% moisture content after 60 and 90 days of storage. Packing materials have no significant difference in the survival of seeds. No stored seeds germinated after one year of storage at room temperature, 0°C, and -10°C. Based on the definition of seed storage behavior, we conclude that seeds of S. abyssinica have intermediate storage.
