dc.description.abstract | The present investigation on " Seed Quality Studies In Soybean (Glycine max (L.) Merrill )" was carried out with an aim to identify proper stage of seed harvest to obtain high seed quality in relation to seed germination and seedling vigour components and correlation & path analysis for seed quality characters in soybean. To identify the proper stage of ~arvest the seed of five genotypes viz. JS 335, JS 93-05, MAUS 71, MAUS 81 and MAUS I 58 were grown in Factorial Randomized Block Design (FRBD) with three replications and eleven characters viz., moisture content, seed index, processing recovery, oil content, protein content, seed germination, vigour index, shoot length, root length, seedling fresh weight and seedling dry weight were studied. The genotypes MAUS 158 performed better than all genotypes in respect of protein content, oil content and germination percentage. Most of the characters I ike seed moisture, seed germination, vigour index and oil content decreased after physiological maturity stage. l-Ienee it is advisable to harvest the soybean crop at physiological maturity for better seed quality. The correlation study revealed that moisture content showed a significant and negati vely correlated with germination whi le the seed index , processing I·ecovery and oil content were significant and positively correlated. protein content showed positive correlation with germination and oil & protein content were positively correlated. The moisture content recorded highest negative direct effect on seed germination while seed index, processing recovery and oil content showed significant positive indirect eff'ect. | en_US |
