| Summary, etc. | An investigation on "Fruit maturity, methods of seed drying and storage conditions on seed quality in okra, Abelmoschus esculentus (L.) Moench" was undertaken in the Department of Olericulture, College of Horticulture Vellanikkara, during the period 1996-1997. The findings are briefed below. In the present study it was found that seed germination started only after a seed maturity of 24 days.The germination percentage, 100 seed weight, root length, shoot length, speed of germination and vigour index was maximum at 36 days after anthesis which represented the physiological maturity stage in okra. Among the different fruit drying and seed drying methods, the maximum overall mean germination was recorded by the fruits initially dried using mechanical drier (350C) for six hours followed by seed drying under shade for one day and thereafter in direct sun light avoiding the peak hours till the seeds attained 8.0 per cent moisture level. Among the various methods of seed drying maximum speed of germination and vigour index was recorded for these seeds. Overall means for various containers showed that seeds packed in 700 gauge polythene bag had the highest germination percentage (80.30%) even after seven months of storage. The seeds stored in cloth bag had the lowest germination. Among the different storage conditions seeds stored at 50C had the highest germination percentage. Neither the storage container nor the storage condition influenced the root length or shoot length of the seedling. |
