The experiment was conducted in the Laboratory, Department of Plant Pathology, HSTU, Dinajpur during April July 2010 to know the effect of abiotic and biotic factors, storage periods and storage containers on the seed quality of French bean. Tin container showed the highest germination, normal seedlings and vigour index which were followed by polythene bag, where Gunny bag showed the lowest germination, normal seedlings and vigour index upto 60 days after storage. The highest 1000-seed weight, moisture content, abnormal seedlings, seed rot and incidence of the Fusarium oxysporum were recorded in Gunny bag, where the lowest of these parameters were recorded in Tin container. Seed colour of Tin container were more or less same as initial colour, but seeds of Gunny bag were changed into fade or brown colour at 60 days after storage. Moisture content, 1000-seed weight, abnormal seedlings, seed rot, fungi association were increased, but germination and normal seedlings were decreased with the increase of storage periods. Among the three containers, Tin container was the best and the Gunny bag was the worst storage containers upto 60 days of storage for French bean seed.

“…are the predominant pathogens with the highest incidence in the field, other pathogens such as Alternaria spp., Fusarium spp., Rhizoctonia spp. have also been reported (FRANCISCO; USBERTI, 2008). The seed vigor tests based on the seedling growth and electrical conductivity have been used to select the different vigor levels in bean seed lots (ARAUJO, et al, 2011;CARVALHO;NAKAGAWA, 2012;LOBO JUNIOR et al, 2013).…”

The physiological and phytosanitary qualities of common bean seeds used on a small farming system depend on the cultural practices, drying system and storage conditions employed. The objective of this work was to evaluate eight lots of common bean seeds using germination, vigor and phytosanitary tests. The lots were produced in 2005 and 2006 in "Zona da Mata", Minas Gerais State, Brazil, and analyzed for moisture content, germination quality, first germination count, seedling vigor, seedling emergence, electric conductivity, seedling dry weight, seedling length, hypochlorite test and blotter test. The experimental design was completely randomized with four replications. The mean seed moisture content from all lots was 8.4 %. Four lots were classified as high vigor, one as intermediate vigor and three lots as low vigor. The first germination count and electrical conductivity tests were the best for evaluating bean seed physiological quality. All seed lots were infested by fungi, mainly Alternaria, Cladosporium and Fusarium.

Cowpea is one of the main crops in family agriculture, especially in the Northeastern region of Brazil, and it is expanding to other regions in Brazil. The use of seeds with low physiological and health quality is reflected in the plant development and consequently yield, making it important to study the seed physiological and health quality. The objective of the present study was to assess the physiology and health of traditional and biofortified cowpea seeds. The traditional cowpea varieties (Angelim, Mercado and Manteguinha) and the biofortified cowpea cultivars (BRS Aracê, BRS Xique-Xique and BRS Tumucumaque) were assessed for the following physiological parameters: water content (WC), first count (FC), germination test (G), germination speed index (GSI), seedling emergence in the greenhouse (E), emergence speed index (ESI), seedling aerial part and root length (APL and RL) and electric conductivity test (EC). The seed health quality was assessed by the Blotter Test. The water content present in the seeds of the traditional and biofortified varieties ranged from 10% to 14%. All the traditional and biofortified varieties showed high germination and emergence value in the greenhouse. The germination and emergence speed indexes indicated the BRS Aracê and BRS Xique-Xique cultivars as the most vigorous. In the health tests the highest indexes were the storage fungi Aspergillus sp., Cladosporium sp. and Penicillium sp., with the highest prevalence in the BRS Tumucumaque variety, which was probably related to the higher water content present in this variety.

Seed health of common bean stored at constant moisture and temperature

Abstract: Fungal incidence in stored common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) is the main concern in order to preserve seed health and viability. The main aim of this study was to analyse these quality parameters in hermetically stored seeds at 10.
