Abstract


In varieties MCUS and Suvin, the seed maturation is completed by 55 days after pollination both in the winter and summer seasons. Three important and distinct periods wore noticed during the period of seeds development; the initial period falling between 5-10 days after authesis, when the rate of development was the highest: the middle period bet ween 25-35 days when the seeds attained the maximum weight and size; and the final perioc between 50-55 days when the seed reached full maturity recording maximum germination. and vigour, Significant variations between varieties as well as due to seasons within vari eties were evident for the parameters studied.
