The preservation of the viability of seeds is a problem to all workers engaged in crop husbandry. To a plant breeder whose work necessitates the testing of innumerable cultures, the preservation of seeds without impairing their germination capacity is of prime importance, as all the material cannot be studied at the same time and a certain period of storage is always necessary. To a farmer growing crops on a large scale a knowledge of factors governing the viability of the seeds and the best means of preserving it is a vital necessity. The effect of certain storage treatments for preserving seeds of millets were studied at the Millet Breeding Station, Coimbatore and the present paper is a review of the results obtained.
