Abstract :
In order to investigate the effect of seed storage period and drought stress during seed formation on germination and some related characteristics of three commercial soybean cultivars, a research was conducted in the 400-hectare field of the Seed and Plant Improvement Institute (SPII) in Karaj and the Seed Analysis Laboratory of the Seed and Plant Certification and Registration Institute (SPCRI) in Karaj. For this purpose, a standard germination test was performed on freshly harvested and stored seeds for one year of three commercial soybean cultivars, Saba (L17), Hamilton, and Williams, which were produced under drought stress exertion on the mother plant by irrigation at the seed filling stage after 50, 100, and 150 mm of evaporation from a class A evaporation pan. Then, the percentage of normal seedlings, mean germination time, coefficient of velocity of germination, mean daily germination, daily germination speed, and length and weight seedling vigor indices were determined. The results showed that increasing the intensity of drought stress applied to the mother plant during the seed formation period and storing the seeds for one year reduced the evaluated indices of seed germination and seedling vigor, and the Saba (L17) cultivar had the ability to better maintain seed germination and seedling vigor under the conditions studied.
