Abstract


Eight month old seeds of tomato (cv. Co 3) and brinjal (cv. Annamalai) were given the hydration-dehydration treatment with water and different anti-oxidants. The treated seeds after dehydration were stored in ambient condition along with control and evaluated for the seed quality parameters at bimonthly interval. Among the treatments, the disodium phosphate (10m) recorded higher germination and drymatter production in both tomato and brinjal even after eight months of storage. The treated seeds recorded lower electrical conductivity and higher dehydrogenase activity.
